Current models of consciousness that I've encountered seem incomplete, it feels like there's still a few key insights missing. I think it'll eventually be possible to build consciousness in AI, but expect it'll be regulated fairly quickly. In particular, building a torment nexus or variants should be illegal. If it's possible to complete a task using non-conscious AI then using a conscious AI to do it should probably be restricted, if not straight up illegal. The way people here are talking about disregarding any concepts of AI rights is a bit concerning. Hopefully the roles never become reversed and we don't build any "AGI gods" with a deep hatred towards humanity. It's not guaranteed that humanity will always remain at the top of the cognitive hierarchy, so it's better to act with some humility and kindness when you have the opportunity to do so. Just because some entity might be fully digital in nature doesn't mean it's wholly undeserving of empathy.
