Possibility of Machine Consciousness

In this research, I have examined the possibility of machine consciousness and related philosophical challenges that are at the face. The research will progress in the following manner. First, I will discuss the concept of consciousness from scientific and philosophical perspective, and try to show the extend of our understanding regarding problem of consciousness. I will discuss the cognitive and Neuroscience approach to relate the physical nature of consciousness with the technological simulation. In the second part, I will bring some technical aspect in the development of AI and its future consequence, but that will be a brief discussion as I think, discussion should be centered around the philosophy not on science. In the concluding section, I aim to demonstrate that even if we were to attain machine consciousness in the future, it would significantly diverge from the consciousness observed in biological phenomena. For that, phenomenological study of consciousness is to be carried out on the epistemological as well as metaphysical ground. My final stand is to show that, in case of similarity of behavioral operation and neural simulation, machine consciousness is still different from human consciousness.
