We can't confuse anything with cosciousness since we don't know what it is. I am not claiming lamda is consc. but that your arguments are invalid.

Slime mold doesn't have neurological activity. Is it sentient? It sure knows how to find food and solve problems that are considered very hard for humans.

No matter what I believe any kind of argument I heard so far is just wishfull thinking.
We simply don't know if anything is sentient or what does it even mean to be sentient.
