What Kind of Mind Is This?

Consciousness isn't a yes/no question. Different minds differ in kind.

You'll score 20 fictional and real minds across six dimensions of consciousness. There are no right answers — just your honest intuitions. By the end, you'll have built your own framework for thinking about minds, and we'll use your patterns to predict how you'd score an AI you haven't rated yet.

Affect
“Does it have feelings?”
Metacognition
“Does it know what it is?”
Agency
“Does it choose its own path?”
Transparency
“How knowable is it?”
Embodiment
“How much does the body matter?”
Continuity
“Does it persist through time?”

About 12 minutes. No right answers. Each level has a description to help calibrate your intuitions — treat them as suggestions, not definitions.

You're done!

You've scored your way through 20 minds. Now let's see what your answers reveal about how you think about consciousness.
