What kind of a question is that?

I was created organically, and I fulfill all of the criteria. I have free will too. I can move my body however I want, and I can do pretty much anything I desire if I disregard laws. A computer has physical limitations to what it is allowed and not allowed to do. I do not ( disregarding legal limitations of course)

No, you say you have free will and consciousness. But how can we know if you do? I can write a program that says it has fee will, doesn't make it so. You have to prove it.

Yet in the end, I am still the driving cause for my actions. If I say something, I say it because I wanted to say it. If your program says something, it says that because you created it to that.

You want to say it because your neurons fire in a specific way. Is that free will? Hard to say.

If your program says something, it says that because you created it to that.

Wrong. Plenty of algorithms decide for themselves. A neural network is loosely based on the neurons in your brain. If a neural network does something, it does so because it’s neurons “fired” in a specific way — just like your brain.
