The Integrated Information Theory Needs Attention

Currently, it offers the fundaments of a formal account, but future developments shall explain the qualitative structures of every possible conscious experience. But this ambitious project is hindered by one fundamental limit…

We argue that the experience of time passage has a real and measurable basis as it arises from an …

Knowledge, Dexterity, and Attention: A Theory of Epistemic Agency
Artificial consciousness and the consciousness-attention dissociation
Artificial Intelligence is at a turning point, with a substantial increase in projects aiming to implement sophisticated forms of human intelligence in machines. This research attempts to model specific forms of intelligence through brute-force search heuristics and also reproduce features of human perception and cognition, including emotions. Such goals have implications for artificial consciousness, with some arguing that it will be achievable …

Notas sobre la muerte en la narrativa maya actual

Which PRI Wants to Win the Election
Rather than a temporary phase, Mexico's recurring crisis, beginning in 1982, is part of the painful process of economic restructuring envisioned by the proponents of neoliberalism. Moreover, it reflects an effort to dismantle the state as a factor in the development of the country's economy. Despite the election of new presidents, the economic model employed in Mexico has remained unchanged
