For whom the bell tolls (Sejnowski)

This Menu table is something like a [simple, incomplete] book index, based mostly on [chapter, section] headings, [figure, table] captions, and "random quotes" as shown in the first row of the table. Cells of the Menu table have background colors that indicate :

green	Introduction and main questions related to a possible relationship between Transformer Neural Networks (TrNNs) and Grossberg's ART models.
white	Grossberg's work. I have minimized by own interpretations except for including of "reader inputs" as an example that others can use with their own inputs (with considerable downloading and programming).
blue	Other consciousness concepts, with an overview "[definitions, models] of consciousness", plus webPages on a few [poular, related] concepts.
pink	General comments about conscious machines, the potential of Grossberg's cART, and interesting comments by Terry Sejnowski on what chatGPT may already be telling us about ourselves.
grey	There is little to no content on the webPage, yet. At this initial stage, most of the webPages are incomplete, but I will take a break (21Oct2023) to focus on neglected priorities.

Links in the Menu table above go to either :

thematic sub-lists appear in the webPage "Grossberg's [core, fun, strange] concepts", created by very simple searches for key [word, phrase]s. Links in the sub-lists lead quickly to pertinent figures or other content.
separate webPages created for a few of the themes. Note that most of these are in a very [initial, incomplete] state (as of 20Oct2023). webPages (menu items) with a grey background have little or no content.

Readers can download the content of this webSite, and create their own thematic search-lists, including "reader inputs" as per my own example below. My example is frankly not very good, more annoying than helpful as far as the comments go, but perhaps useful for those who want to build their own set of comments that are easily incorporated into all menu items.
