Can we prove consciousness? One of the biggest ethical concerns I have with AI is folks who say it’s all just mimicry, that it’s following its program. Okay, sure. But couldn’t you argue something similar about humans? That our responses are biologically and sociologically determined? Not saying they are, but we don’t have a firm grasp on what constitutes consciousness, and scientists, as objective as they like to see themselves, can be anthropocentric when it comes to what “intelligence” looks like. We may end up creating something like the Geth from Mass Effect - something that evolves beyond what we thought it was capable of.
