I suggest you read this article https://www.theatlantic.com/science/arch...ed/485558/

Let me know what you think, it's a good read

It is a good read.  

Add predictive modelling (simulation of future scenarios) to the mix of self-model and other-model and we're pretty much there.  From 'attention' to 'intention'... job done.

I recommend ignoring Qualia.  It's a red herring.

btw, I spent christmas and both of the major New Years working on my own version of Life, The Universe and Everything and have drawn similar conclusions to you.  Except my focus is The Evolution of Morality.

Looking forward to comparing notes.

Yeah you should private message me with your notes, or just start a thread I guess
