Level 4 capabilities include static behaviors and rudimentary learned behavior.<\/p>\n<p>Level 5 \u2013 Awareness + World model + Primarily subconscious self model = Sapient or Lucid: Lucidity means to be meta-aware \u2013 that is, to be aware of one\u2019s own awareness, aware of abstractions, aware of one\u2019s self, and therefore able to actively analyze each of these phenomena. If a given animal is meta-aware to any extent, it can therefore make lucid decisions. Level 5 capabilities include the following: The \u201csense of self\u201d; Complex learned behavior; Ability to predict the future emotional states of the self (to some degree); The ability to make motivational tradeoffs.<\/p>\n<p>Level 6 \u2013 Awareness + World model + Dynamic self model + Effective control of subconscious: The dynamic sense of self can expand from \u201cthe small self\u201d (directed consciousness) to the big self (\u201csocial group dynamics\u201d). The \u201cself\u201d can include features that cross barriers between biological and non-biological \u2013 e.g., features resulting from cybernetic additions, like smartphones.<\/p>\n<p>Level 7 \u2013 Global awareness \u2013 Hybrid biological-digital awareness = Singleton: Complex algorithms and\/or networks of algorithms that have capacity for multiple parallel simulations of multiple world models, enabling cross-domain analysis and novel temporary model generation. This level includes an ability to contain a vastly larger amount of biases, many paradoxically held. Perspectives are maintained in separate modules, which are able to dynamically switch between identifying with the local module of awareness\/perspective or the global awareness\/perspective. Level 7 capabilities involve the same type of dynamic that exists between the subconscious and directed consciousness, but massively parallelized, beyond biological capacities.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Link: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/beyond-the-beyond\/2018\/08\/transhumanist-bill-rights-version-2-0\/\">https:\/\/www.wired.com\/beyond-the-beyond\/2018\/08\/transhumanis...n-2&#45;0\/<\/a> --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Level 4 \u2013 Awareness + World model: Systems that have a modeling system complex enough to create a world model: a sense of other, without a sense of self \u2013 e.g., dogs.
