Consciousness is fundamental, the AGI system is made of consciousness
and it will be utilized by it once the AGI represents a sophisticated
enough API between consciousness and physical reality.
Just like it is with computer games. The game "resides" in your
computer. If the game code gets complex enough then your CPU and memory
become able to generate a meaningful experience for you. You are not
present in the game world ... you interact with it through some kind of
API an that API needs to be complex enough in order for you to be able
to do meaningful things within the virtual reality the game represents.
You can use virtualization in order to host Ubuntu and you can use
virtualization in order to host some ancient Ti z80 based OS. While you
stay fundamentally the same person the complexity of the hosted OS
determines your options within the virtual environment. A chess computer
does not give consciousness enough room/potential to unfold ... an AGI
system will.

Consciousness "seems" to provide higher level reasoning/intuitive syntheses in
general intelligence. Humans provide that component of consciousness now in the creation
of AGI. I don’t think an AGI would auto-create itself without consciousness present even
on some alien planet.
