Hi guys, I though this might be interesting: http://www.surrey.ac.uk/qe/cemi.htm
His thesis is that consciousness is not generated by the neurons firing and computing, but rather the electromagnetic (EM) field generated by the neurons is consciousness - being conscious is then how it feels how to be an em field (of a certain kind) from the inside, so to speak.
What do you think? This would be important for AGI and would explain why usual computational models, which do not seek to generate physical em fields but remain in the abstract fail to produce conscious AIs.
