D2.8 Ethics and philosophy articles to act as reference of cognition and consciousness research

These articles will propose criteria to analyse broadly relevant issues on the relationships between the complex networks and emergence of consciousness as well as between human and artificial intelligence/cognition. They will provide concrete empirical, theoretical and behavioural criteria for ascribing consciousness to humans also in clinical contexts (e.g. patients who suffer from disorders of consciousness), animals, and machines. They will suggest strategies for dealing with key ethical and societal implications of the research results and broadly communicate concrete measures to connect new communities of potential users of EBRAINS from social science and the humanities.
