About

Wen-Yu He is a thought-provoking researcher at the intersection of artificial intelligence, cognitive science, and the philosophy of mind. His primary research areas include the nature of consciousness, the limits of machine intelligence, and the fundamental differences between biological and artificial cognition. He is best known for his seminal 2021 paper, "Why AI still doesn’t have consciousness?", which has garnered 21 citations and sparked critical dialogue in the AI ethics and cognitive science communities. In this work, He argues compellingly that consciousness is a unique feature of biological creatures and the root of genuine intelligence, positing that without it, machines cannot achieve true understanding or self-awareness. His contributions challenge prevailing assumptions in AI development, urging researchers to reconsider what it means for a system to be intelligent. By bridging philosophy and computer science, He has established himself as a distinctive voice in debates on machine consciousness, making his work essential reading for students and scholars exploring the future of artificial general intelligence and the ethical implications of creating sentient machines.
