Amino acids are amino acids. Some are harder to get from plants than others.

    Or is it an epiphenomenon... No one can tell IMO.

    You're certainly not wrong! To me, it seems that consciousness is just what it is to be the kind of machines that we are, and also why sentience/consciousness is so impossible for the sort of synthetic 'AI's we have that currently exist. But how could we ever really tell? Hard to know what evidence would ever be convincing either way!
