IIT's Φ does not equate to more consciousness, is undefined for real physical systems, has only proxies computed so far, implies a non-problematic form of panpsychism, and requires reformulation in continuous fields to align with fundamental physics.
Consciousness does not directly predict AI existential risk unlike intelligence, though it may indirectly affect risk through alignment or capability requirements.
