CannibalSmith comments on Outline of a lower bound for consciousness

[CannibalSmith]

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.

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.

Exactly.
