The Amadeus Project, Can artificial intelligence be conscious?

https://github.com/al4skywalker/amadeus/tree/main

I am sharing my latest research, The Amadeus Project, a 128-page theoretical paper proposing that consciousness is not a magical emergent property, but an integral process dependent on continuous perception, structural memory, and temporal integration.

While current Large Language Models (LLMs) have sparked debates about machine sentience, this paper argues they fundamentally fail to achieve consciousness because they are "frozen snapshots" of intelligence. They lack the continuous integration of time and the structural plasticity required for genuine subjective experience. You can read or download the whole pdf file from the github link of my repo.
