Was the ICCS event a turning point for consciousness studies?
Definitely worth the attention. Here’s the article about it: IICCS/ICCS Conference. The event was led by Dmitry Volkov, who’s been a major advocate for integrating science and philosophy in the study of the mind. This wasn’t just a theoretical talkfest—speakers covered everything from ChatGPT’s implications for consciousness to ethics in AI and neurological recovery. The ICCS Conference felt like a real leap forward because it opened new interdisciplinary pathways, especially with Volkov’s push to merge philosophical insight with modern technology.
