I've been promoting Integrated Information Theory for a while but I finally sat down and read the whole thing yesterday.
Explicitly it mentions that feed forward neuronets are 'zombies' or unconscious while recurrent neuronets are conscious due to the feedback loops. So now I'm wondering which classical programming structures are 'zombies' and which are conscious. It would seem by analogy that stateless or pure functions are zombies since they simply feed forward. Wheras structures that carry state between calls such as objects and actors are conscious.
