I've been wondering about that subject myself.

Short version: Consciousness is an interpretation of probabilities based on one's experiences. This idea has already proposed by others, but it doesn't explain emotions and identity. That's actually the part that I've been trying to process, and I think I'm onto something. Is it useful in any way? Not really.

That's an interesting definition.

Would you say that anything that interprets probabilities based on experience is something that has consciousness? Can a machine have consciousness? Can a cat have consciousness?

Is sentience a higher state of being than consciousness?
