Maybe, but a pre-requisite to doing that right, is that we must first understand what this mysterious "consciousness" thing even is.
I can play word games like saying "consciousness" is the opposite of "unconsciousness" (or alternatively and IMO not entirely compatibility that it is the opposite of "subconsciousness"), but every time I've looked at this, it's either ended with (1) circular definitions, (2) definitions that accidentally include VHS players connected to TV set, or (3) things that humans regularly fail at.
None of that actually helps figure out whether or not a machine does or doesn't have that which makes us have the experience of being.
Getting it wrong, in either direction, is a Bad Ending.
