This book discusses two main cultural problems behind the failure
of machine consciousness and artificial general intelligence (AGI)
projects over many decades. The first problem recognizes that
building a conscious AGI means building an artificial scientist.
The book identifies the responsible pitfalls in mainstream
scientific behavior and eliminates them by proposing a new
operational framework for scientists called "Dual Aspect
Science".The second problem arises because scholars involved in
machine consciousness and AGI essentially aim to replicate brains
with computers. They are demonstrably not doing this, and this
failure has been prevalent since the rise of computers. Instead,
the book discusses the possibility of doing real empirical
neuroscience by means of artificial materials that literally do
what the brain does.Inspired by Thomas Kuhn, one of the most
influential philosophers of science of the twentieth century, this
compendium proposes a fresh perspective on machine consciousness,
on AGI and, more generally, on how the machinery of science might
need to change to accommodate it.
