No.

Awareness for sure. Temporal propagation in some parts of the brain.

Consciousness != awareness.

Is it unscientific to say awareness is a subset of consciousness?

Inner and outer state correlative syncing mirrors and anticipatory projectors able to integrate into growing organized memory content no prior near misses consequential to survival and pleasure?

One may never conclude inner and outer state correlation. Reality is potential distribution to state resolve not merely state mechanics. The persistent need to validate and revise. As well as adjust for perspective, exhibiting this disparity.

Anticipatory projection is bound by inference, and perception is non-linear. Testing among experiential domains may demonstrate as much.

Memory both decays and optimizes over time, it does not merely “grow.”

“No prior misses” is a non-sequencer.

Survival and pleasure are not optimal determiners of resolve. Principle and purpose override contextual relationships.

LLMs require sufficient training and impeccable quality of account which humans themselves must iteratively develop.

Awareness is temporal feedback. Consciousness is the inflection of the potential of existential being.
