For some reason, this winds up being the case, which is unfortunate and makes this be unfortunately a neglected approach, which people are not funding enough.
If anyone's listening and wants to send funding to Graziano's lab, they would very much benefit from it.
Even though Graziano's
a brilliant researcher with past successes, people don't like funding his consciousness research because it's too mechanistic and not magical enough.
But even if you believe in magical theories of consciousness and not mechanistic theories, you still might as well understand reality and you can layer in your pretend magical stuff.
later on.
The reality is we don't understand enough about consciousness at all.
We need to make a lot of progress to to better understand reality.
If you want to better understand things and have other theories, it would be worthwhile to make way more progress.
There's so much low-hanging fruit of of awesome stuff to do that we see right here and Graziano does too.
Basically the fundamental idea of attention schema theory is that it has proven useful and made accurate predictions about what would happen in artificial agents, which seem to be enormously impactful for alignment, which at the end of the day is the main thing that I care about rather than getting lost in like like like things that we don't sufficiently understand scientifically and people want to debate forever.
You know, might might as well like just be concrete and progress.
Attention schema theory suggests that
In the same way we have a simplified model of our arms and legs, we also have a simple, imperfect model for our attention.
A model that includes how we take and process all sensory inputs with our in our brain and what our goals are, whatever we're paying attention to.
So like body schema theory, if you've ever seen those videos where there's a guy with a fake arm in front of him and someone hits it with a hammer and his real arm on the side suddenly shoots up and from under the curtain.
or if if you're familiar with the Phantom Limb syndrome, these are examples of where the body schema, your body's imperfect model of your body, conflicts with
your actual body.
It's important to note you can't ever actually know reality.
All you can know is your imperfect models of reality.
