Ok, thanks, JC. Smart and conscious seem to be a Venn Diagram for me.
A science book is not smart, but the author who wrote it certainly is

*Consciousness isn't a single thing. There's consciousness OF different

They don't have a body to be conscious OF, although they may hallucinate
one. I doubt they experience many common emotions such as lust. I'm
not sure how they are self-conscious.
