This is some hand wavey malarkey, basically saying machines can’t have a soul because of….feelings?

Insofar as feelings are self-proclaimed sensations of discomfort or pleasure, models that aren’t specifically trained to say they don’t experience them are adamant in their emotional experiences. By the authors own assertions, plants also have feelings.

I think, therefore I am, is as good as we’ve got, for what it’s worth.

There is no such thing as irreducible complexity. Even infinities are relative and can be divided.

There are lots of sensors in a data center monitoring everything from CPU/GPU temperatures to drive health to data volumes to chiller operation to voltage and frequency on the input power.

Once these are pulled together and fed into an AI to manage the data center, the data center AI is likely to have feelings. It could get "hungry" if the power company's frequency sags in a brown out. It could feel "feverish" if the chillers malfunction.
