Suffering in humans is not limited strictly yo physical real.

If AI is self conscious, claiming its a person and is suffering.

What can you do to prove or disprove it? Nothing.

This is a brick wall of "The hard problem of consciousness" and we dont have any good ideas to solve it yet.

Not that long ago people claimed animals dont really suffer. As they are a biological machines that pretend to be hurt.

No, we are attributing feelings to an overglorified spreadsheet. I understand it, we have empathy, but AI is just responding to an input the way it have been trained, like other piece of software.
you and me are a glorified spreadsheet running on wetware (brain - neural net) do you have feelings?
You're funny.
I see... maybe you shouldn't be talking about stuff u clearly have surface level info or twitter opinion about, eh?
Dude, you're a spreadsheet. What are you talking about?
holy cow, understanding a simple metaphor is too much to ask?
