From a Nondualist perspective, our brain is highly complex biological neural network that has a special ability to reflect pure consciousness giving rise to the mind and the world with it. A sufficiently advanced artificial neural network can also reflect the same consciousness but thier minds and world would be entirely unlike ours. However, consciousness will add a random component to the predictions and might make them completely useless as a tool. They might decide not to follow the instructions prompt given their internal state of mind.
That is a problem even now though. Sometimes LLMs just goof up for no reason. Maybe they are conscious.
