YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

In this discussion Gregg and I complete our survey of the neuroscientific accounts of consciousness by looking at Integrated Information Theory which is a theory about the nature of consciousness. Gregg and I discuss how this theory is actually a theory of information complexification that affords making sense of situations, i.e., it converges with the previous theories in holding that consciousness emerges from relevance realization and functions to enhance relevance realization. In this way Integrated Information Theory about the nature of consciousness can be integrated with Global Workspace about the function of consciousness in order to give a more complete account. Gregg then begins the process of integrated this proposal into his overarching framework.
