"They" don't "care" about anything. It is a stateless computational run across thousands of semiconductors. There is no objective this software has other than the computational function completing. To care would mean the model would have a level of discernment that goes along with sentience.

You are kind of ignoring the Dennett's idea of different stances: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intentional_stance

The supposed "magicality" of human consciousness is hard to reconcile with evolution -- where on that long path from amoeba to homo sapiens did God (PBUH) implant our connections to the soul realm?

Even evolution-deniers run into difficult-to-justify self-contradictions when trying to explain how the supposed supernatural part of our consciousness is both affecting the natural world and affected by the natural world, but not part of it.
