  • In this article, it is taken for granted that fully-human artificial intelligence—a term used to denote artificial life that is, in principle, more human than strong AI would be—must possess operational faculties for consciousness and selfhood. After clarifying relevant questions surrounding the interested socio-psychological phenomena, progress in animal and humanoid robotics is summarized. The aforementioned topics within philosophy and the social sciences are reviewed, noting their relevant overlaps with recent developments in cognitive and computer sciences. My working assumption is that the avowed conclusion of human AI cannot currently be written off as impossible and should therefore be critically engaged (the intent is to engage with humanoid robotics’ capabilities and features in relation to the present state of knowledge regarding the psychological phenomena discussed). It is argued that for human AI to fully succeed as a discipline, the discussed psychological notions as we understand and experience them must be further elucidated and adequately accounted for by AI research programs.
