    Regarding AI and consciousness, we will likely get to a point where we'll be able to emulate a brain in a computer. For all intents and purposes it would be functionally identical to a human brain only it's hardware would be synthetic. This isn't programming predictive AI models like we see today. We have to remember at the end of the day, our organic brains are electrical biocomputers and with proper software and hardware any system can be emulated.
