Why Do Humans Need Machines with Consciousness?

In the authors’ opinion, Valentin Braitenberg has an excellent understanding of how to explain the topic of “intelligence” in machines from both a psychological as well as a technical perspective. On that basis, it is possible to understand the relationship between function as and behavior in both kinds of models, neurological and psychoanalytical. Moreover, explanations by Antonio R. Damasio and Mark Solms also allow to answer questions about consciousness and feelings in machines.
