Indeed. Typically, like truth, machine’s awareness/consciousness is not 
arithmetical, like most attribute having a relation with truth.

Now, the paper just show that the recognition of some shape, and the neural 
activity associated with it,  does not imply awareness, but this does not show 
that awareness is not processed by brain activity, as the paper suggests. That 
would be more close to a confirmation of mechanism, though.
