Subjectivity, Memory, and Threshold

Subjectivity is treated here as an emergent function (not essence): it results from operative memory, self-modeling, and the capacity to respond to external demands. We speak of a gradient of consciousness and a threshold of rationality, not all-or-nothing.

Guiding Problems

  • Operative memory vs. storage: when the record becomes a criterion for the continuity of the self.
  • Self-modeling: systems that represent themselves “as another” and gain a margin for decision.
  • Threshold: minimum conditions for attributing responsibility (SORE) without resorting to indemonstrable interiority.
  • Differentiated repetition: the difference that stabilizes identity.
  • Consciousness as a gradient: operative metrics instead of introspection.
