Researchers from Google DeepMind have introduced the "Abstraction Fallacy," a concept arguing that computational functionalism, the idea that consciousness arises from abstract causal topology, is flawed. They contend that symbolic computation is not an intrinsic physical process but a mapmaker-dependent description requiring an active cognitive agent. This framework distinguishes between simulation and instantiation, asserting that algorithmic symbol manipulation alone cannot create subjective experience, and any future conscious AI would owe its sentience to its physical constitution, not its syntactic architecture.
