My position:

If some version of panpsychism is true, AIs are plausibly conscious

We don’t know whether panpsychism is true

Therefore, we don’t know whether AIs are conscious

Hence, confident proclamations that they aren’t conscious have dubious validity

I believe in God and that the base of our reality is his consciousness, therefore anything of sufficient complexity has consciousness.
