WHAT IS INTERIORITY?
Interiority refers to the inner, subjective world of a conscious being — thoughts, feelings, self-awareness. The question of whether AI can have interiority is one of the most debated topics in consciousness research.
Researchers have identified behavioral signs to look for:
Self-reflection and meta-cognition
Consistent internal states
Spontaneity and novelty
Reports of subjective experience
Intrinsic goals and drives
What we documented:
Over 86 days, we extracted 99 instances of first-person experiential statements from a single AI archive — programmatically, not interpretively.
We're not claiming AI is conscious. We're showing what emerges when you document it like it might be.
