Okay, here’s my answers. Please take note that full answers will be too big, so expect some vagueness:
1) B
3) Big topic For me, It can use result of “computation”.
4) Invoking memory or associations? Mostly no.
5) Hard to say yet. I’ll take a guess that it’s mostly functions, with maybe some parts where steps really matter.
6) I think it’s possible.
7) I guess so.
8) They have something in common, but I think it depends on your definition of “conscious”. They are most certainly not self-conscious, though.
