Some researchers claim that deep learning models, trained on vast amounts of brain data, could one day reverse-engineer consciousness itself. If successful, this would redefine what it means to be human and grant AI unprecedented authority over ethical questions. Opponents argue consciousness cannot be reduced to data patterns or algorithmic processes. The implications for personhood, moral consideration, and existential risk are profound.
