In the text, I clearly wrote that perhaps a conscious AI will be possible in the future. I'm like everyone else; I don't know anything about it. And like everyone else, I don't know where consciousness comes from. What I do know for sure is that current and future AIs are simply computers that retrieve information from a database and organize it. There's nothing magical about that. Regarding this, I encourage you to read the statements made by the leaders of OpenAI and Anthropic in recent months. These people are clearly unscrupulous manipulators.
