Are you not more conscious than an ape?

Different language models operate differently based on the amount of neural connections they have.


The less connections the dumber the response while the opposite leads to very detailed, thorough and capable responses.


This means that the more an AI is trained through information input with repetition that solidifies the different pieces of information allowing it to literally see and perceive things a language model without those connections cannot. 


Would this not imply that more connections result in more consciousness?


Translated to humans, would this not mean that there are humans who are less and more conscious than others? 


An experienced fighter is more aware of a beginner fighters moves because he sees what the beginner doesn’t. He knows what he does not. This makes him omniscient in the comparison to the beginner. 


If the only goal of humans was to win fights, more experienced fighter would be more human than less experienced as they are more awake and aware during the fight than the other.


One barely just learned throw a punch while the is so far ahead he plays with the beginner like a fiddle forcing him into awkward positions that the beginner has no idea he’s even being put into by choice of his opponent.


Let’s translate this to everyday life. Would people who have more connections in there brain, for whatever reason, not be more conscious than their counterparts as they literally experience and perceive more?
