Depending on how you slice it, we have ~8 sensory systems: —Vision —Hearing —Touch —Taste —Smell —Vestibular (balance) —Interoception (internal organs) —Propriocetion (joints/muscles) Idea: modeling introspection as a 9th “sensory system” Is this stupid? Profound? Fruitful?

is modeling introspection just one sensory system or is that an entire complex of internal senses?

I think that’s what’s meant by “system” in this context. E.g. the touch system comprises pressure, temperature, pain, itching, etc.
