My article questions the classic mirror test, arguing that it fails to distinguish between genuine self-awareness and sophisticated, involuntary reflexes. This raises a future-focused question: If our foundational tools for detecting consciousness in the natural world are this flawed, how can we possibly expect to design a reliable „Turing Test“ for the Artificial General Intelligence we are trying to build?
As we advance toward AGI, we need to discuss what new, more nuanced metrics we can develop. How do we avoid creating AI that is simply an expert at mimicking the superficial signs of consciousness, and how would we even know the difference?
