Yes, someone please enlighten me.

By the way, the one issue that may be decided fairly soon is human consciousness. We will learn a lot when we find out whether computers can be made conscious. If so, that knocks out pretty much all religions except Sklanskyanity.

You're gonna be annoyed with me for this one, but what do you mean by "conscious" and "consciousness?" More specifically, what is your position on the question of privileged access, the notion that only the conscious subject has epistemic access to its own mental content? If someone believes in priveleged access, then they can never be convinced of artificial intelligence.
