Artificial consciousness (AC) is artificial system in theory capable to achieve the abilities of consciousness by creating necessary rules in all circumstances when it is possible based on the information it gathers, also the research aiming to create and study such systems in order to understand corresponding natural mechanisms.

The term "artificial consciousness" was used for the first time by professor Igor Aleksander of London Imperial College, who in his book "Impossible minds" (IC Press 1996) believes that the principles for creating a conscious machine already exist but it will take forty years to train a machine to understand language.
