How we think, feel, and experience the world is a mystery. What distinguishes our consciousness from AI and machine learning?

At her research lab, her team is currently investigating the functionality of consciousness, trying to unravel the depth and limits of unconscious processing, and also researching the ways semantic relations between concepts and objects are formed and detected.
