The problem of consciousness is not only a hard problem because of
unknown
mechanisms in the brain but it is a problem of finding the DEFINITION of
necessary conditions for consciousness.
I think, consciousness without intelligence is not

For general intelligence some components and sub-components of
consciousness
need to be there and some don't. And some could be replaced with a human
operator as in an augmentation-like system. Also some components could

You are - if I've understood you - talking about the machinery and
programming that produce and help to process the movie of
consciousness.
I'm not in any way denying all that or its complexity. But the first

You guys are seriously irritating me.
You are talking such rubbish. But it's collective rubbish - the
collective *non-sense* of AI. And it occurs partly because our culture
doesn't offer a simple definition of consciousness. So let me have a

because it is not all just fluffy philosophizing you have to have at least
