Therefore, this article will discuss a subset of human capabilities and the connection with conscious behavior, secondly, a prototype theory of consciousness will be explored and machines will be classified according to this framework. In this sense, it is necessary to first explore these assumptions and then suggest how the specific information processing of brains would be replicated by machines. However, can computers be compared with humans? Can computers become conscious? Can computers outstrip human capabilities? These are paradoxical and controversial questions, particularly because there are many hidden assumptions and misconceptions about the understanding of the brain. Surpassing humans would mean replicating, reaching and exceeding key distinctive properties of human beings, for example, high-level cognition associated with conscious perception. The idea of machines overcoming humans can be intrinsically related to conscious machines. 3Centre for Brain and Cognition, Pompeu Fabra University, Barcelona, Spain.2Cognitive Neuroimaging Unit, INSERM U992, NeuroSpin, Gif-sur-Yvette, France.1Department of Computer Science, University of Oxford, Oxford, United Kingdom.
