yeah,it's an interesting theory but also heavily disputed. I'm myself not sure what to think about it. but given that nobody really understands consciousness and how it arises, it is a unique way to think about it. I'm at least doubtful that consciousness is just a matter of scaling up connectivity aka that assuming a large enough increase in computing power, consciousness will suddenly spring into existence by itself - a fiat consciousness so to speak.
