Comparing my consciousness to yours may be like comparing a firefly to a supernova, maybe I'm the only human that is not conscious. Or maybe its the other way around and regular old solipsism is true, or maybe we're equally conscious; the only thing I know for sure is I'll never know. And that's why discussions about Artificial Intelligence are so much more interesting than discussions about Artificial Consciousness.
