I'm starting to think that your condescending "go ask a chatbot" is not intended as an insult to imaginary annoying AI bros unable to comprehend High Matters That Have Been Definitely Solved Once And For All By Those Smart People In A Self-Evident Manner but is sincere in that you believe an LLM can say something new in this discussion.
The statement that consciousness is subjective and should and will be interpreted does not lead to hardcore social constructionism nor does it lead to solipsism, sorry this doesn't make any sense. It looks way more probable that it contradicts your hard beliefs that don't need proof. If you believe consciousness is objective and exists independently of your beliefs then you can give a rigorous definition of it that doesn't rely on arbitrarily chosen vague concepts like "dynamic flow" and "intentionality", and a way to measure it. It doesn't have to be binary, I don't think anyone here has any problem dealing with multidimensional concept closeness mathematically.
I am telling you to ask a chatbot because you are saying things so hilariously philosophically incompetent and ignorant that even a retarded LLM will improve your thinking.
You obviously don't care about thinking coherently though, or can't even recognize what coherent thought looks like (mainly because you seem to think something along the lines of "my few minutes of armchair reflections prove all philosophy is vague and retarded"), so this is clearly a waste of time. I will not be engaging further.
