A lot depends on what we find out about our own thought processes and the brain, as well as how closely modeled on the human brain these 'computers' are. At present, it's simply too early to even presuppose that such a thing as a zombie could exist. You're laying claim to more than you actually know.

How do you do that now? How do you know a psychopath or an autistic person has a mind? How do you know you or I have a mind?
