This requires that we determine what consciousness is, and more fundamentally, whether it is the result of physical processes in our brain OR perhaps something that is immaterial, i.e. cannot be reduced to mere physical processes. This is important because if consciousness is the latter (immaterial), there is little to no possibility that we can create artificial intelligence identical to our own. However, if it is material, then theoretically it is at least possible to create AI identical (or very similar) to our own, even if we lack the capability at the moment.
