How do you know any human being, or any being commonly considered sentient, has a consciousness, other than yourself? How do you know that the rest of the "people" you see aren't just meat robots, acting "as if" they see and feel and understand me? WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE WHETHER IT IS MEAT OR METAL?
Or do you consider it a fact, a priori, that consciousness cannot be engineered into existence, ever?
Are you, sir, a closet vitalist?
