摘要

标记法是回答分配问题的最佳方法:哪些动物有意识?然而,这种方法可以用来提高许多人认为是无意识动物(包括秀丽隐杆线虫)的可信度,这就导致了一个三难选择:接受蠕虫是有意识的;拒绝特定标记;或者拒绝用标记法来回答分布问题。我为第三种选择辩护,并认为回答分布问题需要一个可靠的意识理论。接受所有动物都有意识的假设将促进安全理论的研究,而这正是为动物和人工智能创建可靠的意识测试所需要的。与其问分布问题,我们不如转向维度问题:动物是如何有意识的?

“All animals are conscious”: Shifting the null hypothesis in consciousness science
The marker approach is taken as best practice for answering the distribution question: Which animals are conscious? However, the methodology can be used to increase confidence in animals many presume to be unconscious, including C. elegans, leading to a trilemma: accept the worms as conscious; reject the specific markers; or reject the marker methodology for answering the distribution question. I defend the third option and argue that answering the distribution question requires a secure theory of consciousness. Accepting the hypothesis all animals are conscious will promote research leading to secure theory, which is needed to create reliable consciousness tests for animals and AIs. Rather than asking the distribution question, we should shift to the dimensions question: How are animals conscious?
