Why would it have to be a 1 to 1 replication? Isn't that a strawman argument? NNs can basically store the collective of knowledge of humanity in that miniscule amount of neurons. NNs also run at much much higher frequency than human brains. Does that make human brains inferior and not worthy of being called aware by the same line of argumentation? Why do these differences even matter? I can imagine a vastly different form of awareness than humans just fine. They can both be aware and not that similar.
