Despite the unnecessary jabs, it's still an interesting discussion.
I'll try a different angle. Feel free to respond.
Let's assume the essence of both artificial and organic intelligences is that they are composed of input-output systems, functions basically.
One difference I see with current AI is that the outcome of 'designed' functions is fully in line with an intent/purpose behind the design. That isn't to say the outcomes would be predictable in practice (a trained AI will find and use patterns no human designer would have come up with) or theory (functions might include an element of randomness by design).
On the other hand, evolution has no interest in 'purifying' the input-output system to its bare essentials. Evolved brain functions are going to be open to and impacted by inputs that do
not serve the primary role (what we might think of as the 'purpose', if there had been a designer). Drug induced hallucinations, for example. Or functions may have ended up serving multiple purposes, in which case optimization would have concerned a compromise.
If that's the case, then the notion that "training" of individual components, fundamental in present day AI, could
ever lead to consciousness in a whole might be called into question. Consciousness could happen by accident, but not by design, unless we can actually present "consciousness" itself as training data.
Ok, just rambling I suppose. There's probably countless of philosophers and scientists who have written papers on it that are too difficult for me to even read. What do you expect though. It's a gaming forum
