This is a pretty tired argument that I don't think really goes anywhere useful or illuminates anything (if I'm following you correctly, it sounds like the good old Chinese Room, where "a few slips of paper" can't possibly be conscious).

Yes it is more complex, but it's nowhere near the complexity of the human or bird brain that does not use clocks, does not have "turing machines inside", or any of the other complete junk other people posted in this thread.

The information in Jira is just less complex, but it's in the same vein of the data in an LLM, just 10^100 times more complex. Just because something is complex does not mean it thinks.

So, what is the missing element that would satisfy you? It's "nowhere near the complexity of the human or bird brain", so I guess it needs to be more complex, but at the same time "just because something is complex does not mean it thinks".

Does it need to be struck by lightning or something so it gets infused with the living essence?

Well, at the moment it needs to be born. Nothing else has agency on this planet. So yes, the bar is HIGH. Just because you have a computer that can count beans FAST, it does not mean because you counted a trillion beans that it was an important feat. When LLMs were created it made a lot of very useful software developments. But it is just a large data file that's read in a special way. It has no agency, it does not just start thinking on it's own unless it is programmatically fed data. It has to be triggered to do something.

If you want the best comparison, it's closer to a plant- it reacts ONLY to external stimulous, sunlight, water, etc... but it does not think. (And I'm not comparing it to a plant so you can say - SEE you said it's alive!) It's just a comparison.
