@mfckr_ How do we establish the existence of a deeper causal essence? I can only think about self-reflection on human experience, but this seems to me to produce a record of subjective experiences that are not necessarily generalisable to other minds.

Correct. A 'tyranny of nominalism', as it were. And so when it comes to investigating that essential causality, there are core questions AI proponents seem to either not comprehend, or handwave away as unimportant—e.g. "what does it really mean to 'think'', "what is mind?", etc.
