Perhaps you misunderstand. I'm saying that a computer (RAM sticks, registers, etc) is extremely unlikely to have actual conscious experience. At best, a computer can be a philosophical zombie. The point is, consciousness doesn't emerge purely from computation alone. You need the right physical process/activity/properties/whatever, which the brain has and computers do not.

You can construct a computer using purely mechanical parts - gears, cams, springs, etc. The first calculators were purely mechanical.

So imagine you built an absolutely massive computer, made purely out of mechanical parts, that was capable of performing matrix multiplication and therefore running LLMs. It's technically computation, but should we seriously expect real consciousness to emerge from a purely mechanical computer just because it performed the right computations? Of course not, that would literally be a miracle.
