通用人工智能能否脱离意识而存在？

As artificial general intelligence (AGI) moves from theoretical formulation toward tangible research objectives, a fundamental question arises: can a machine possess intelligence of human-level flexibility without any form of consciousness? This question transcends pure academic curiosity, penetrating public discourse and expert debates alike. With numerous AI laboratories, from tech giants to startups, targeting systems capable of general problem- solving and adaptability akin to humans, there remains no clear consensus on whether consciousness is an essential component of truly general intelligence. This article presents a rigorous examination of AGI, consciousness, and their relationship, incorporating expert definitions, philosophical insights, scholarly debate, and the technical and ethical ramifications of an AGI without consciousness. …
