The top comment decimates this essay so thoroughly that I'm actually a bit disappointed I bothered to read it all.

This is a funny but ineffective strawman° argument. On the other hand, it's given me inspiration for a test - an AI is conscious when it responds to a tricky question with "Brother stop annoying me, why you got all these dumb questions, what's your problem? I got shit to do, man. How'd you even get this number?"

° Actually I'm not sure if this is really a strawman, but it sure seems fallacious when (1) the creators/promoters of AI are equated with divinity and (2) the mistakes of humans are equated with the failings of LLM's, without qualification or citation.
