Blueprint of A Self-Conscious Robot

 How to build a mechanical analog self-conscious synthetic robot:

Consciousness, as defined by Wikipedia, a consistently unreliable source of formal information much like this one, is the state or quality of awareness, or, of being aware of an external object or something within oneself. The definition is absolutely wrong primarily due to the fact that awareness and consciousness are two different things. "Someone could be aware of something but could be not conscious, and someone could be conscious of something but could be not aware of itself" is a good example that counters its misguiding definition. But for the sake of understanding consciousness better let us use the definition for awhile for comparison purposes.

Before the conceptualization of biotronics, no one can build a self-conscious robot for a simple reason that most people have the wrong idea about what consciousness is, what it's made up of, and how it evolved in humans. It is believed that Consciousness must have to do with the mind. Some argue it is a transcendental or mystical experience. Others suggest that Consciousness is the soul or spirit that powers the body. But of course, all these claims are wrong.

Joey Lawsin, author of the book Biotronics: The Silver Species,  formulated the 5 basic stages or levels necessary in determining consciousness based on the data and facts derived from his experiments, observations, and prototypes. The stages, in line with his principal discovery on associative consciousness, are linked to each other and arranged in accordance with their orders of materialization. Each stage is part of a bigger chain that is essentially vital in the creation of consciousness.

To understand consciousness or self-consciousness better, Lawsin claims that the first principal requirement that determines consciousness is Codexation. It is a behavior, a one-to-one correspondence action where the subject responds to its surrounding by tagging, labeling, or associating what it senses with another object like a ball for play or eat for tray. It is not the same with awareness, as Wikipedia erroneously defined it. Codexation and awareness are two different things that are not related in any way. Awareness doesn't involve consciousness at all as you will see in these videos and write-ups below:

To design a self-conscious robot, 3 basic requirements must be addressed namely:

1.  A simplified, scientific, and general definition of consciousness  What is consciousness?
2.  The 5 levels of consciousness. What is it made up of?
3.  The Working Principles. How consciousness evolved?

• Definition of Consciousness: 

The simplified definition can be found here, the scientific definition here, and the general definition states that " Consciousness is a two steps action. First, the recipient has the ability to form an idea (abstracts), and second, it has the capacity to associate the idea with a real object (physicals)." In a nutshell, consciousness is the capability to match abstracts with physicals or vice versa. A process known as codification or codexation.

• The 5 levels of Associative Consciousness:
  
  1. Reaction - you don't know what it is.
  2. Recognition - you know what it is.
  3. Retention - you know.
  4. Recall - you know it.
  5. Recalculation - you know more about it.

• The Working IO's Principles:
  
  1. Sensation - input
  2. Acquisition-
  3. Codexation-
  4. Retrieval -
  5. Transmission - output

These requirements are the keys that need to be in place and integrated to be fully functional.

Points to ponder:

• if a robot can recognize a dog from a cat, is the machine conscious?
• If it can examine its one's own thoughts and feelings, is the robot conscious?
• If previous knowledge ( dB) is in place, will it become conscious?
• In a basic string phone system, how do we store and retrieve the message?
• Why in the backward hello paradigm, information is inverted?

Again, to build a self-conscious robot we need:(1),  (2), and (3)  

"Every single moment of life is a variant of multiple events occurring all at the same time.
