Paper proposes Sophia, a recursive cognitive refinement architecture for artificial consciousness
reigentil · reddit · 2026-07-26
- A Reddit post shares a paper titled Sophia: A Recursive Cognitive Refinement Architecture for Modular Artificial Consciousness.
- The paper proposes Recursive Cognitive Refinement (RCR): instead of a single input-to-output pass, the system adds a reflective sublayer that revisits intermediate semantic states.
- The reflective loop is meant to perform coherence checking, contextual synthesis, memory-aware restructuring, and other metacognitive functions.
- The author argues that this kind of recursive internal refinement may help explain how emergent cognition could arise beyond raw statistical processing.
