Artificial consciousness, often referred to as synthetic consciousness or machine consciousness, is the hypothetical concept of a machine or software system having conscious experiences similar to those of humans or other sentient beings. It involves the development of artificial systems that possess qualities associated with consciousness, such as self-awareness, the ability to perceive and respond to the environment, subjective experiences, and potentially even emotions.
