Curiosity may be the attribute upon which (conscious) Learning depends the most. So, can an algorithm be devised that can exhibit Curiosity? There is no Why function in Programming Languages. Curiosity seems to imply a Desire to determine Why something is or is not. How can software cause a machine to ‘want’ to do something? To ‘care’ about something? Wanting and Caring are adjectives that describe some attributes of Consciousness and Self-Consciousness.
What might be a simple aspect of a Why algorithm? Why is? Why do? Why not? Why can? Why must? Why will?, etc. Each of these are complex. What is the fundamental action involved in Why?
