Bullshit. if it is found that p-zombie chimp exist, or that even all chimps are p-sombies, it doesn’t even do the least bit in posing any challenge whatsoever to the framework of the evolution of human consciousness, nor cast doubt upon the survival advantages conferred by consciousness in the trajectory of environmental and social circumstances faced by direct ancestors of humans. No one said investment in the metabolic overhead required to support the brain functions of consciousness can prove to be a profit making investment under all trajectories. Chimps may be the closest living relative but are not a direct ancestor of men. Which makes chimps even more distant from men than the most recent common ancestors of chimps and men. A combined 12 million years of separate evolution under different trajectories of social and environmental pressures distinguishes us.
