Matter itself is not “conscious.” When arrange in various ways, matter is able to receive consciousness.
Nikola Tesla already answered this question, essentially. He theorized that the “brain” is not the generator of thought but functions like a radio receiver of thoughts, memories, ideas (i.e. consciousness) beamed to it by “higher”/universal consciousness — or as some have called it, the “Akashic” Records.
This is basic Judaic Kabbalism. So “scientific” questions such as this one are intended to be distractions for the “minds” of gentiles. Vajrayana Buddhism also covers all of this but on a much deeper level.

Interesting, but different ways of saying the same thing imo. Whether consciousness is inherent in all matter, or whether that is "beamed in" to a "receiver", the resulting expression in physical reality is the same result.

Could be another layer to it though. Ever see Serial Experiments Lain?
