I don't have any particular informed opinion on Electromagnetic theories of consciousness.
But that "Implications for artificial intelligence" is completely wrong. It's perfectly possibly to simulate something like what the claimed model of consciousness is using a perfectly normal computer. It may take additional compute to do it, but field simulations are perfectly achievable.
It seems like this bit on Wikipedia was extracted from a paper by one of the chief proponents of this theory. The fact they think that about computers is pretty worrying and makes me question how well thought out this theory is.
