Towards Computational Models of Artificial Cognitive Systems That Can, in Principle, Pass the Turing Test

We will give plausible arguments in favor of a claim that we already have sufficient knowledge to understand the working of interesting artificial minds attaining a high-level cognition, consciousness included. Achieving a higher-level AI seems to be not a matter of a fundamental scientific breakthrough but rather a matter of exploiting our best theories of artificial minds and our most advanced data processing technologies. We list the theories we have in mind and illustrate their role and place on the example of a high-level architecture of a conscious cognitive agent with a potential to pass the Turing test.
