Agreed. Also there is something "magical". Nobody understands how our consciousness works. While people will tell you it "arises from the brain" nobody has the slightest clue about how that works. It's a really hard problem when you think about it because our subjective experience has no mass , no length, no height, and is in that way not even material. Our consciousness is very important to our function, and without it, all artificial intelligence remains artificial and has no ultimate "reality check" on whether it's decisions are good or bad for it.
