Abstract
Consciousness is a subjective (implicit) experience. Artificial consciousness aims to simulate this consciousness. This is by building a model as complex as a human brain. Any model less complex than the brain will not be able to simulate the human brain nor a part of it. Building a subject is one of the biggest difficulties because scientists till now don’t know what specifically a subject is. Consequently, it is impossible to build something you don’t know it. Many attempts tried to build machines able to do tasks with the same proficiency as humans. Many attempts succeeded as deep blue that beat the chess world champion Garry Kasparov, but this didn’t reach human consciousness yet. It just follows specific complex commands. This category of machines lacks emotions, love, creativity, desire, and curiosity. Now, scientists try to model the brain by RAM which every neural connection (synapse) equals a floating-point number that requires 4 bytes of memory to be represented in a computer. The brain contains 1015 synapses that equal 4 million GBs of RAM. This memory is not available on a computer till now. It is predicted that it will be available near 2029. This idea may fail for any reason, but all researchers, scientists, and technologists believe that artificial consciousness will become a reality someday even in the far future
