The AI and Consciousness project delves into the ethical and philosophical questions surrounding AI consciousness and its implications for society. This includes exploring whether AI can achieve a form of consciousness and what such a development would mean for human interactions with machines. The research examines the moral considerations and rights that might be afforded to conscious AI entities.
Furthermore, the project investigates the impact of AI on human consciousness, particularly how interactions with intelligent systems influence self-perception and cognitive processes. By addressing these profound questions, the project aims to contribute to the ethical and philosophical discourse on AI, ensuring that developments in AI consciousness are aligned with human values and societal norms.
