Self-awareness kind of necessitates an awareness and understanding of ones surroundings, and for an AI, that would be the digital world.
I don’t think so. Self-awareness per se does mot necessitate anything other than the ability to conceptualize self. Because such ability does not pop out of quantum foam fully formed, it seem likely the ability to comceptualize self evolved because it aids in solving problems necessary for survival. So self-awareness May be strongly correlated with a tendency to frame problems in the context of self.
Curiousity does not need self awareness, nor does self awareness need curiosity. The only relationship between the two is self-awareness permits an awareness of the one’s own curiosity.
