摘要

If not a paradox, consciousness is at least an enigma. Many believe consciousness is hard to have, whereas others are panpsychists. Many hold that consciousness is hard to understand, perhaps impossibly so, whereas others believe we already have available an adequate general understanding of consciousness. Rocco Gennaro belongs to the second camp, and in this important work he explains why. In The Paradox of Consciousness, Gennaro develops and defends a higher-order thought (HOT) theory of consciousness. A HOT theory is an alternative to theories that consciousness depends on a "global workplace" that integrates and processes data from multiple sense modalities, or that what makes a conscious first-order mental state is what the state represents ("representationalism"). Any of these causal/computational theories has the great advantage over, say, quantum approaches, of providing a large-scale blueprint for actually designing a system that, if the theory is correct, would be conscious. Thus causal and computational theories like HOT are important for AI, as well as for psychology and neuroscience.
