The new incorporation of an I-function in our brain model was a signficantly more less wrong model than our last.  This model accounts for the self-recognizing property that we humans have.  However, a problem that is still not accounted for is what differentiates that I-function input-output boxes from other boxes.   Perhaps it is located in the neocortex, a part of the brain that makes us and other mammals unique.  But is that suggesting that organisms that lack a neocortex lack an I-function box? It is difficult for me to believe that some organisms lack I-function.  Maybe, my inability to believe is attributed to the fact that I possess a neocortex which prohibits me from accepting that some organisms are simply more primitive than I am.
