Sadly, to confirm or reject your suspicion, we would need to develop tools which can peek into someone's mind and see whether true self-consciousness is actually there.
Until we have that, I'm afraid no one can be right about whether the semblance is something more or not.
- coldtea 4y agoWe don't really need to develop such tools. They don't make sense anyway, as there's no specific think to be measured as "true self-consciouness". At best they can measure the activity and call that "true self-consciousness". But it's still something a being experiences for itself.
