Toward
a Science of Consciousness: Tucson III
Post-quantum
computing and computer consciousness are the subjects of a biannual
research conference.
Will
consciousness arise if you put enough quantum physicists, neurosurgeons,
parapsychologists, philosophers, neurophysiologists, and artificial-intelligence
(AI) researchers together in one place for a week and turn up
the heat? That's the question put to the test every two years
at the "Toward a Science of Consciousness" conference, sponsored
by the University of Arizona.
