Thank you for sharing your epistemic status. I think this and other questions regarding consciousness deserve more study. It is relevant for AI research, on LW see e.g. Nonperson predicates. This was also mentioned by Sam Altman in the recent meetup. I intend to write a post on some testable predictions about consciousness and I hope to get some into the next SSC/ACX survey.
