A Conceptual Model of Self-Consciousness for the Sign World View of an Intelligent Agent

Abstract

This article deals with the problem of self-consciousness modeling for intelligent agents with a sign world view. A conceptual model of self-consciousness is proposed, which includes a description of the “I” sign components and the typology of its relations with other signs of the world view. The empirical research of the “I” sign semantic component was conducted using the “RSA machine,” which enables a deep linguistic analysis in the interests of socio-humanitarian sciences, and the results of the research are presented. It is concluded that a certain role behavior (e.g., a victim or a successful self-manager) affects a person’s unconscious use of predicates with some semantics.
