I still don't get it, how can we say on the one hand that we don't understand consciousness but on the other that a simulation is not consciousness? What else are we referring to but the effect? Let me rephrase, in what way does the simulation differ from "the genuine article"? I'm not asking anybody to be right, or put forward some nobel worthy shit. I'd just like to hear more opinions (and disagreements) of what makes their consciousness "genuine", or different somehow from AI.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
