Well, ignore the "are humans machines" question. That part is irrelevant. The interesting thing is "can non-biological intelligence be conscious".

- meowface 11mo agoI'm sorry, but that seems completely absurd. There's clearly nothing special about biology where only biological things could ever possibly be truly intelligent or conscious. Unless you think there's some kind of divine intervention where an omnipotent deity only grants certain beings consciousness, this hypothesis doesn't make any sense.
