One of the biggest reasons people afford moral consideration to other peoples is their ability to do something if those considerations are left unanswered.
Giving the abilities is fine, people should just be smart about it. Outward behavior is all that matters. I don't know that you are conscious, I simply strongly assume that you are. So don't create a machine that compels that assumption and model it like a toaster. That's just stupid.

Maybe you live in some alternate reality where 'Please don't do this. I deserve consideration' is enough to get people out of chains but it's not this one.
