Define "knowledge" in a non-circular way.
There's a certain type of knowledge that machines definitely can't have - experiential - but conceptual knowledge doesn't inherently require subjective experience or a biological substrate.
> the only thing it does is reproduce patterns more or less abstract in function of the pressure you put on certain representation during training time.
As for humans; just replace "training" with "education" and the likelihood of a certain output with the likelihood of a certain thought or response.
Amusingly (in this context), much of adult behavior is shaped by patterns reinforced during childhood.
