Nope. When I was a kid I coulda sworn I saw an octopus floating out my window, but it was probably a hallucination. I don't like things that don't have logical explanations, even if the explanations are only hypothesises, and hand-waving about 'conscious energy' feels human-centric to me, as if we're somehow special because we're conscious.
all life that has a central nervous system is probably conscious imo. plants could have some kind of alien internal awareness too. its not about humans being special, its about life being special. heck for all i know every atom and inanimate object has a kind of experience of its own.
