Nobody has any idea what their inner experience is. People who've been blind since birth still exhibit visual activity during REM sleep and dreaming, as do fetuses (Schöpf et al. (2014). Some people born without limbs still feel pain in phantom limbs. Most people born with congenitally missing limbs do not experience phantom limbs, but a small subset do (body maps exist in the brain inherently). Pain can absolutely be perceived without any form of 'input'. Be that as it all may, it is impossible to tell whether something is experiencing qualia. The best we have to go on are brain waves and the existence of neurotransmitters which serve qualia--both of which organoids begin to produce.
