So we can't even prove consciousness is actually real in the first place. All we know is we have a subjective experience we rationalize through the concept of consciousness and given that this is the only experiential notion of it in the first place it makes no sense to ever apply it to an algorithm. We can have a separate philosophical discussion about whether humans are anything other than input->output machines with a bunch of fancy software that tricks is into thinking that we're thinking, but as of yet there's no reason to think any computer program in existence is anything other than a fancy calculator. Calculators aren't conscious, or intelligent, or thinking, or capable of subjective experience. The entire position is based on a null hypothesis. I do believe a computer could eventually become conscious but not any computer humans are capable of building or programming any time soon if ever.

For the umpteenth time, I'm not arguing, I'm telling you that you fundamentally do not understand any of the things you're talking about. I do not need to rebut nonsensical bullshit.
