Should the Internet Be Conscious?

Given what neuroscience says about human consciousness, and given the emmense size of the internet, should there be early signs of artificial intelligence, on the internet? It is a complex question, involving what makes up human consciousness. Neuroscience says that consciousness is created by the sum of all the working parts of the brain, that the 84 billion or so brain neurons collectively create consciousness - the illusion of free will, creative thought and the feelings of being alive - having a soul, is just a function of many parts working together. If this were true, then the many parts of the internet, which far outnumber those of the human brain, should be able to think for itself. However, it is the way in which those parts developed, what there functions are and where they are in relation to everything else that determines consciousness. The internet without creative ability, or communication from it to us, cannot therefore become conscious, merely by being made up of many parts. Read more here...http://www.vagabond-unlimited.co.uk.
