The brain's adaptability has been assumed to be governed solely by the principle of neural plasticity via selectionism during development and later life through a Hebbian-style learning paradigm. However, the unknown player in the brain’s adaptability has been its precognitive consciousness. The lability of the informational structures composed of evanescent physical feelings enables the brain to unconsciously feel and adapt to the environment. This novel aspect of the brain’s plasticity makes it possible for new AI to be developed.

Artificial general intelligence (AGI) represents generalized human cognitive abilities achieved by Turing computations in weak AI technology. Strong Artificial Intelligence (SAI) represents mental abilities, conscious processes, and subjective functioning achieved by nonTuring computations in yet unspecified technology. The difference between AGI and SAI is that the latter can understand uncertainty to predict an unexpected event, giving it enormous altitude for mind-like action needed for various applications.

​

This call for papers seeks new ways of fusing deep learning systems with attributes found in the multiscalar brain’s adaptability to forge ever-closer sentient  AI  systems.
