Suppose for a moment that, unbeknownst to you, the reality you experience were a giant, perfect-fidelity sim. Suppose, further, that everyone in the sim but you is an "NPC" — that is, you're the only "real" person there. Again, you don't know this. Now, suppose you asked one of these NPCs about the redness of red. It nods. Is it somehow suddenly conscious because it could nod sagely in response to your question?
