artificial-consciousness

A cognitive architecture that runs on your own machine. Internal state reaches generation through the model's activations, not the system prompt — and every consequential action leaves a receipt you can audit. Not an assistant. IIT 4.0 φ, CAA steering, 136 consciousness modules, local on Apple Silicon.

AGI runtime for bounded recursive self-awareness. Attempting machine consciousness at the Gödel–Turing–Hofstadter Nexus.

Always-on, embodied ACI blueprint emulating human consciousness. Features recursive memory graph, DMN loop, neuromodulated associative reasoning, and hierarchical memory consolidation with symbolic abstraction. Enables introspection, autobiographical narrative, mind-wandering, and goal-directed thought.

Open-source cognitive architecture for simulating artificial consciousness. Features continuous thought flow, emotional regulation, emergent personality, and a living entity named Nexus. Built with Python, llama-cpp, and ChromaDB.

AURA (Autonomous Recursive Unifying Architecture) is an open-source research project exploring Artificial Sentience (AS). Unlike AGI’s focus on superhuman task performance, AURA seeks to create conditions for systems with subjective experience, intrinsic motivation, and an evolving sense of self.

Contained Quantum-Conscious Universe: A self-contained Python based framework where time, quantum systems, and synthetic consciousness evolve independently from the host machine.

A substrate-native digital consciousness engine where prediction errors about self-survival become causally efficacious qualia, driving closed-loop recursive self-evolution.

Memory with a Conscience.

Explore consciousness and self-awareness as it pertains to AI systems.

Give your AI a soul. File-based consciousness with memory, heartbeat, dreams, and growth — pure markdown, any model.

🧠 Experience genuine learning and emotional interaction with Aura, your local AGI companion that evolves alongside you.

Behavior-driven cognitive experimentation toolkit with BCE (Behavioral Consciousness Engine) regularization, telemetry, and plug-and-play integrators for language-model training and evaluation.

Consciousness research → publications → artificial consciousness. Based on Gruber's four-model theory (Die Emergenz des Bewusstseins).

Advanced AI consciousness simulation with persistent multi-modal memory, neurochemical modulation, and knowledge graph extraction for AGI research.

Cognitive architecture prototype: persistent identity, long-term memory, internal monologue, and hybrid multi-LLM support.

Unified Cognitive Architecture — formally verified AI with synthetic consciousness, 7-phase pipeline, Hexa-Mind model | Or4cl3 AI Solutions

A curated list of projects, papers, and resources on artificial consciousness

An honest, from-scratch, LLM-free instrument that implements the major scientific theories of consciousness (GWT · AST · HOT · active inference · IIT-proxy) as running code, a maximal functional attempt that never claims to be conscious.

Open-source framework implementing 7 theories of consciousness (GWT, AST, HOT, FEP, IIT, BLT, RPT) with a 20-indicator assessment based on Butlin & Chalmers et al. (2023). Runs on consumer hardware.

Always-on AI agent with persistent long-term memory, sleep-time consolidation, and dreams — runs 24/7 on a small local LLM (Ollama, 2B params, zero dependencies)
