Just because no one understands the way this is wired up does not mean that
it is the same as a human brain.

That is not the question. If the machine behaves exactly as a human in
terms of following a value set, then you will, by definition, see no
difference. But in saying this you are assuming that the AI can in fact
behave in this way, and that is just to assume the answer to the original
question. Which was: Can the AI act according to human type values (or any
values, for that matter)?
