I don’t understand the question. It’s an inequality, and in cases where the inequality isn’t satisfied, the answer it gives is “I don’t know”. The answer for a rat will always be “I don’t know”.
I must profess I didn’t understand most of what you’ve said, but did I guess the following right? The equation says that
IF my knowledge is “bigger” than my ontology THEN I might be conscious
And in the case of learning my ontology, it means that my ontology is a subset of my knowledge and thus never bigger than the former.
Right.
Exactly.
