Funnily enough I share parts of both of your opinions - due to the lack of the better explanation for what I'm experiencing I do believe I'm conscious (something LLM would say!), but I'm also not entirely convicted I have a free will - it might be free-ish, within the confines of some narrow set of parameters, like a inside of the straw for the ant.

However once again for the lack of the evidence to the contrary, I treat myself and others like we have a free will (for the most part).

Sabine Hossenfelder has a fascinating video on the subject.
