This event resolved a 1998 bet about the neural correlates of consciousness, and presented the first results of the @ArcCogitate adversarial collaboration testing two theories of consciousness, now published in @Nature at nature.com/articles/s41586-0….

Beta desynchronization (in motor cortex) seems to be under power of will, to correlate with conscious readiness to do a task (such as exact moment to bungie-jump), and to correlate with going ahead and doing the task. But, ramping up readiness potential is not under power of will nor does it indicate conscious readiness.

@OryanZacks and @DariaZakharova9 both gave superb talks in an excellent concurrent session (which I chaired) on animal and infant consciousness. The reporter from the Economist sat in the front row and asked many questions. No one talked about IIT in that session as I recall.
