seems like you are obsessed about the lack of the definition of the consciousness. But buisness doesn't need to understand what it is to exploit it

like with LLMs, we don't know what the "consciousness" is and if they have it, but it doesn't matter, we use them

> you can't copy something you have not even the slightest idea about

imagine if we had a way copy or emulate every cell and connection in the brain? we don't need to know which part of the brain is responsible for what, it would function even if we were still clueless about how it works

You might argue that you cannot really copy such complex stuff without understanding. But humans managed to copy creatures without understanding what each gene does.
