THE ORIGINAL REVIEW / COMPLETE TEXT
A landscape of consciousness
Toward a taxonomy of explanations and implications
A wide-ranging tour of explanations of consciousness, from brain-based accounts to philosophical views of mind. Kuhn considers what those ideas could mean for conscious AI and other big questions, without claiming to settle which theory is true.
This is the original published review. The current Landscape website expands and revises it, so some entries in our theory index are not covered here.
