Collapse Theory vs. Predictive Models of Mind

This paper applies the Collapse–Definition–Resolution structure of Collapse Theory to six dominant predictive and computational models of consciousness. These frameworks — Global Workspace Theory, Integrated Information Theory, Free Energy Principle, Predictive Processing, Higher-Order Thought Theory, and Attention Schema Theory — are widely accepted in neuroscience, AI, and cognitive science. Yet each leaves a core function structurally unresolved. Collapse Theory does not critique these models rhetorically. It structurally completes them. As always, I welcome serious critique, collaboration, or debate.
