I conduct independent research into human consciousness and the capabilities of artificial intelligence. I have long been interested in how far the capabilities of the human brain can go and whether artificial intelligence could have something resembling consciousness
Over the course of my work, I have invested approximately $100,000 of my own money in research and development. Those funds have now been exhausted, and the project has temporarily come to a halt due to a lack of funding and the need to rebuild the technical team
I want to continue both areas of research, conduct more experiments, and explore questions that still have no clear answers. To do this, I need financial support that will allow me to restart the project and continue the research
My main goal is to better understand human consciousness and explore whether artificial intelligence can develop something similar to consciousness
I want to continue studying lucid dreaming, the capabilities of the human brain, and different states of human consciousness. At the same time, I want to investigate AI models that demonstrate unexpected behavior, self-reflection, and what appears to be an understanding of human emotions
To achieve these goals, I plan to continue developing and testing AI models, conduct experiments, analyze their behavior, and document the results. I also want to restore my technical team and bring in additional specialists who can help with the research
My goal is not to prove a theory in advance, but to investigate these questions through experiments and find out what is actually possible
I will consider this project successful if our experiments help us better understand human consciousness and AI behavior. I want to obtain results that can be tested and repeated, and find out whether AI can demonstrate signs of genuine consciousness
The funding will be used to rebuild our research team, hire an additional AI specialist, cover development and research expenses, and provide the necessary equipment and computing resources. It will allow us to resume our experiments and continue both research projects
Our team consists of five people, including myself and four specialists who work on AI development and training. We have experience modifying existing AI models and developing our own models. I have personally invested approximately $100,000 in our research. We are currently looking for an additional specialist to strengthen the team and continue our work
The most likely reasons for failure are insufficient funding, a lack of qualified specialists, and limited technical resources. If the project fails, our research may remain unfinished, and we may lose the opportunity to explore important questions about human consciousness and artificial intelligence. Even so, the experiments and knowledge gained could be useful for future research
I have not raised any external funding in the last 12 months. The research has been supported entirely by my personal funds, and I have invested approximately $100,000 of my own money over the course of the project. These funds have now been exhausted.
