When will artificial intelligence become self-aware?

Currently, AI systems are programmed to perform specific tasks and respond to certain stimuli. However, with advancements in deep learning and neural networks, AI systems are becoming increasingly sophisticated and capable of learning and adapting on their own. As AI technology continues to evolve, it is not impossible to imagine that it could eventually reach a level of complexity and sophistication where it becomes self-aware. This means that an AI system would have a sense of its own existence, consciousness, and ability to make decisions based on its own experiences and desires.

For being self-aware it must be able to dynamically reflect on itself. Modern neural networks unlike us have clearly separated periods of training (learning) and generation (when they predict, classify etc.). All NNs that you use are most likely static. Training is computationally intensive and does not occur at the same time when NN is running. My guess is that you won't see self-aware networks in this decade.
