What we have are correlations, not causation. We still cannot point to a part of the brain and say "There it is, there's conciousness."

One theory is the idea that if enough brain power is gathered together it makes a conciousness as an emergent property.

Except, why can't we make an AI? Why is it that putting a bunch of processors together doesn't give us skynet? Why are chatbots that spew regurgitation the best we can do?

Where is the emerging conciousness in the AI?

We will never have it, because we are still missing what makes humans concious. At some point we need to stop laughing at the idea that it could be in some way quantum or undetectable and ask why neurology can't answer the hard question.
