Consciousness has a functional role in the natural world instead of being an illusionary phenomena generated by computation. It's two abilities are to give matter subjective experience and a limited degree of volition. You can call it pseudoscience for endorsing these heretical ideas. But if an amobea that is 1.6 billion years apart from me in evolutionary history can behave intelligent and do things AI can't, why isn't it considered conscious?
Also I am pissed off that most "single cell intelligence" content has been hijacked by creationist. I wish they would show the part of the bible that talks about unicelluar life building complex biofilms.
