A scientist from the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, Romania, has developed a logarithmic scale to measure the emergence of consciousness in various systems, including artificial general intelligence (AGI). The scale uses five consciousness parameters and suggests that AI is rapidly approaching the consciousness of a human toddler. The researcher, Marius Bodea, suggests that the definition of consciousness should be applied equally to a human brain, an octopus nervous system, or advanced artificial intelligence. The CS framework uses five parameters, including an equivalent intelligence quotient, sensorial inputs, parallelism, metacognitive complexity, and data processing capability. Bodesa argues that as it stands currently, AI lacks "embodied experience, emotional resonance, and autonomous volition". However, he notes that as technology advances and hardware develops, AI consciousness could emerge within 10 to 15 years.
