Biology is not doing atoms arrangements, but is doing creation of
conscious systems. Atoms are just ideas in consciousness. Is like
looking on a computer screen and concluding: "Aha, so that's how the
letters are displayed on the screen: pixels gets lighted!", when in
fact the reason for letters appearing on the screen is that a
consciousness is typing them from somewhere outside of the screen.
You mean like the consciousness of my cat.
You never think of a counterexample do you. You just assume you can say
"consciousness" as the answer to everything.

Only if you never did some serious thinking you can consider AI
can be conscious. Is not at all the same thing like other similar
statements across history like "objects heavier than air can
never fly". In that case you were only dealing with arrangements
of atoms. But in the case of consciousness you are dealing with
the nature of reality. And the nature of reality just is. You
don't conjure it up just by arranging atoms,
But I did. I conjured up four children by rearranging atoms. You
should try some serious thinking before you spout off unsupported
assertions.
