My thoughts exactly.
Reminds me of a (print) article I came across one time. It was about the
idea of AI consciousness, but the whole article was based on one hell of
a gigantic assumption: That consciousness is a natural consequence of a
sufficiently large neural net. It's a fine and interesting idea, but
PURELY speculative, with zero evidence and not even any way of testing
for evidence since, like you say, we can't even figure out the first
thing about consciousness as it relates to ourselves and each other, let
alone to machines.
