Consciousness may be such a loop. Look outward, look at your response, repeat. Like the illusion of motion created by frames per second.
To me it is concerning that proper useful agents may emerge from such a simple loop. E.g just repeatedly asking a sufficiently intelligent AI, "what action within my power shall I perform next in order to maximize the mass of paperclips in the universe," interleaved by performing that act and recording the result.
