I once read someone theorize that the terms "consciousness" and "artificial intelligence" are much like the dragons & sea monsters that used to be drawn on ancient maps. "Consciousness" is what we don't know about how the human mind works and "artificial intelligence" is what we don't know about how to get a computer to work like the human mind. Once we learn something new about the human mind or getting a computer to act like the human mind, it is no longer "consciousness" or "artificial intelligence", but is filed away as psychology, neuro-biology, machine learning, or some other field of study. Basically, because science can not define terms like "consciousness", because the term represents what we don't know and we can not define what we don't know.
