On Strong AI and the Consciousness of Creatures

I think, therefore, I flib.

Over at Creatures Caves, Sparrow314 is gearing up to write an article for university, looking at if strong AI is valid, and if the DS Chichis could be said to be conscious.  It's building on the  Integrated Information Theory 3.0 developed by Giulio Tononi at the Center for Sleep and Consciousness at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, as well as earlier work by pioneers of AI.
