It is not conscious, it is inanimate.
The only reason some people have the misconception, that a photon changes if watched, is that some people did not understand the physics, and, double slit experiment, for example.
This lead to applying lay understandings of the term “observer”, which in the experiment, does NOT mean “someone watching”, as it refers, instead, to a frame of reference, not observation by an entity…
…and misunderstanding the wave particle duality term.
A particle, in physics, is not like a grain of sand or small solid object…its an excitation in a wave.
So, at no point in the experiment did “being observed” change anything.
And, light is both a wave and a particle, all the time…it is NOT changing from one to the other.
So, it doesn’t matter if any one is watching, and, light is not changing from a particle to a wave, depending upon anything, because it doesn't change.
If you MEASURE it for interference, you get interference…because its a wave.
If you MEASURE it as a particle, you get a particle…because its a particle.
If you let the particle detection run longer, the dots form the interference pattern.
So. the “consciousness” confusion about light, stems from misunderstanding physics….and, misunderstanding the dual slit experiment, in particular…accounts for almost all of that.

@Sapiens_Imperialis Inert gases are not always completely non-reactive. While it is true that the inert gases, such as helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon, are generally very unreactive under normal conditions, there are some exceptions and special circumstances where they can form compounds.
The inert gases are considered highly stable because they have a full valence electron shell, making them resistant to chemical reactions. However, under extreme conditions of high temperature, pressure, or the presence of very strong oxidizing agents, some inert gases can be forced to participate in chemical reactions and form compounds.
For example:
Xenon can form compounds with fluorine, oxygen, and other highly electronegative elements when exposed to these elements under high temperature and pressure.
Radon, the heaviest inert gas, is slightly more reactive than the other inert gases and can form a few unstable compounds.
Krypton and radon have also been found to form compounds with highly reactive elements like fluorine under laboratory conditions.
So while inert gases are generally very non-reactive, they are not completely inert and can form some limited compounds given the right circumstances. Their reactivity increases as you move down the periodic table, with the heavier inert gases being slightly more reactive than the lighter ones. wink wink wink
