· Integrated Information Theory (IIT)
One of the most interesting question to be made is about the nature of consciousness. During a long time the question of consciousness was considered as a philosophical question but during the last decades this question has been approached by the science with the emergence of the Integrated Information Theory (IIT) by Giulio Tononi. This paradigm, proposes a radical reconceptualization of consciousness, framing it as an intrinsic property of physical systems, quantifiable through information integration.
