*any* ideally correct machines is unable to recognize the fact that
they are machines.

I would re-word it as 'Humans are not machines but when they
introspect on their most mechanical aspects mechanistically, they
are able to imagine that they could be machines who are unable
recognize the fact."
I agree that there is an intrinsic limit to Strong AI, but I think
that the limit is at the starting gate. Since consciousness is the
embodiment of uniqueness and unrepeatability, there is no "almost"
conscious. It doesn't matter how much the artist in the painting
looks like he is really painting himself in the mirror, or how
realistic Escher makes the staircase look, those realities are
forever sculpted in theory, not in the multisense realism.
