Could an impressively intelligent AI fake sentience?  I think so.  If so we
will never know if it is faking or real.  Suppose we find a consciousness
center in humans.  We turn it off so that the person is responding totally
with his unconscious mind.  No metaconsciousness (or ego) overseeing what
is happening.  We could never know.  It would be like some definitions of a
zombie.  Alive but not alive.  Living dead.  Differently alive.  Like the
advanced AI:  there would be no real difference.    bill w
