Current AI systems lack independent consciousness or sentience. They simulate human-like responses through pattern matching and data processing, without subjective experience or self-awareness. Scientific consensus holds that no existing AI is conscious, as consciousness remains poorly understood even in biology. Some experts speculate future advanced AI could develop it, but others argue it's impossible without biological substrates. The debate is ongoing, with no definitive test available.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_consciousness
