Artificial Intelligence and self awareness.

   I think self awareness often given in the Artificial intelligence question is a bit too over drawn.  Self awareness appears given to both intelligence and memory.  To be self aware might be given in by our memory capacity to recognize who are in a present versus historical context versus who we are not, that is, by a world of differences and distinction.  Intelligence in such list given by our sense of differentiating such world.

From the standpoint of engineering design, these two problems have already been solved.  Namely, our civilization has already artificially engineered memory.  Our civilization has already given rise to the intelligent senses alongside sensing algorithmic structures which aiding to sensory input and differentiation of a world landscape, that is, by for instance computer vision.

Interestingly enough the examples of human modeling attempts at artificial intelligence, have produced personality types either that seem to suffer from dementia, or schizoid type personality disorders.  Most of this I imagine likely comes from the random access design nature of their memory systems.  Here probably 'smoothing' systems may likely be of some aid here...for instance, this problem may be approached by smoothly weight ranking falloff probabilities for recall using some smooth function for weight ranking such falloff in 'short term' memory registers.  Also another related problem is smoothing the ranking of environmental stimuli in so far as governing predominance of things like 'focus' or 'attention'.  Obviously it is necessary to do these things, otherwise, human might be covering their ears in a city if they were likely given to things like hyperacuasis.  Diminishing and weight ranking commonly induced and understood 'noise' stimuli is an important neuro synthetic processing issue I imagine.

It is on the other hand to figure quantitatively the number of angels dancing on the head of a needle, otherwise, where a crucial threshold might exist that defines a form of life that resembles what we may have conveyed of an intelligence given to the scope, depth, and sensitivity of higher order life forms given our particular sets of biases.

I don't think it honestly takes a whole lot to mathematically or computationally engineer something that is artificially intelligent by the definitions that I have proposed.  Thus, there may actually be very simple life forms out there that have some innate 'intelligence' designed by its sensory processing and differentiation of the world.

Just because something doesn't have a 'face' does not mean it does not have some 'sentient intelligence'.
