Description
Summary:Will we ever be able to build a consciousness robot? Despite science's impressive success in explaining the way things are, the one thing each of us on this planet finds so familiar, that defines our individuality, is our sense of self, and this is paradoxically something that science cannot even prove exists! But that doesn't stop scientists speculating. Irrespective of their speculation, it seems there's a long way to go before science's last great mystery will have its secrets revealed.
