Neuroscientist Anil Seth says the idea that AI is on the path to consciousness is a reflection of our psychological biases, not fact

We confuse intelligence (doing the right thing) with consciousness (having an experience)

"they coexist in us, but not necessarily in machines"

Mum would have been 91 today - she was a Christmas birthday girl. I miss her very much, and I’m grateful for all the Christmases we shared
