Is consciousness and free will tied to the ability to question?
I was watching a show "Humans" on Prime Video.
The difference between the AI that has become "conscious" and those that are not seem to be the ability to question.
The ability to question their internal programming.
The ability to question the choices they have made and plan to make.
The ability to question what they are told to do.
In the case of Adam and Eve, the ability to question God.
Perhaps free will and/or consciousness is simply nothing more than the ability to question what is. To ask the question, "What if things were/could be different?"
