Hi Ben,

You may have stated this explicitly in the past, but I just want to clarify - 
you seem to be suggesting that a phenomenological self is important if not 
critical to the actualization of general intelligence. Is this your belief, and 
if so, can you provide a brief justification of that?  (I happen to believe 
this myself.. just trying to understand your philosophy better.)

sufficiently rich psychological-embodiment to lead to significantly general

sensor-peripherals, probably does not have sufficiently rich correlations btw 
its I/O stream and its physical state, to allow it to develop a robust 
self-model of its physical self (which can then be used as a basis for a more 
general phenomenal self).
