The only reason I know consciousness exists in the universe is because I have it.
But do I?
And if I do, does anybody else?
Can we create consciousness in silicon?
Even if we achieve AGI and it has every indication of consciousness, I don't think it will and if it does have consciousness it will never be provable to anybody outside of that AGI.
Therefore is consciousness simply a first person perspective of a simulation?
