CPU inventor and physicist Federico Faggin, together with Prof. Giacomo Mauro D’Ariano, proposes that consciousness is not an emergent property of the brain, but a fundamental aspect of reality itself: quantum fields are conscious and have free will. In this theory, our physical body is a quantum-classical ‘machine,’ operated by free will decisions of quantum fields. Faggin calls the theory ‘Quantum Information Panpsychism’ (QIP) and claims that it can give us testable predictions in the near future. If the theory is correct, it not only will be the most accurate theory of consciousness, it will also solve mysteries around the interpretation of quantum mechanics.

Don’t believe in “conscious” AI.
Admittedly; I did not watch the video, Steve-bbb.
Yes, I’m prejudice against a “conscious” AI.
However; it’s a great counterpoint, to the top-video[IMO].
Couldn’t stomach it though; as my prejudice, abhors the very concept of it.

Excellent choice for a post. Thank you.
The relentless suppression of certain available information and advocacy of other information seems to be the key to our controlled perception of events outside our thinking self. Her motto of do your own thinking is the golden rule that allows them to produce first class videos. Cool.

Yes!
It’s all an illusion - the “conscious” AI!
