Autosentience
From The Transhumanist Wiki
From the SL4 Lexicon:
autosentience:
The capability to fully view one's internal mental processes, and make arbitrary revisions. Sometimes referred to in the context of "strong self-improvement" or "Recursive Self-Improvement". Humans only possess conscious awareness of a small minority of the complexity of our internal mental processes, and possess the capability to deliberately revise even less than this. Dr. Nick Bostrom's term. See also autoneurosurgery, Self-Translucent Intelligence, seed AI.
