claimIntegrated Information Theory (IIT) explains that Von Neumann architectures have low Phi values at all levels of abstraction because their virtual implementation is causally mediated by underlying components, such as the serial CPU.
referenceIntegrated Information Theory (IIT) provides a mathematical formalism and a metric (Phi) to measure consciousness for every system based on the interconnectedness of its causal structure.
claimDavid Chalmers questioned why Von Neumann architectures cannot be considered conscious according to Integrated Information Theory (IIT), given that they can implement Probabilistic Automata (PA) which have non-zero Phi values.

claimIntegrated Information Theory (IIT) suggests that a complex of maximum phi resides primarily in the posterior cerebral cortex, specifically in a temporo–parietal–occipital ‘hot zone’.
claimIntegrated Information Theory (IIT) proposes that consciousness is the intrinsic ability of a neuronal network to influence itself, determined by the amount of maximally irreducible integrated information (phi) supported by a network in a state.
