Crudely drawn drawing of a person telling a computer "say 'i am in pain'". The computer replies with "> I AM IN PAIN". The person then says "oh my god."
That just creates more questions that it answers. According to this, there is then a threshold, or something missing that would go from “can’t feel pain” to suddently it can. We know that it already replicates a part of the brain’s process, and this author claims that it can’t feel pain because it doesn’t replicate enough. This seems to imply that it’s just a matter of time until they can.
