We can prove humans are conscious. You're the proof, and so am I. It's not a property that has to be constructed from proofs, but one of the certainties that makes all the rest of your universe possible.

But people think that just because they can intellectually try to negate it out of existence and fail to reconstruct it from proofs or descriptions, then it can't be proven and thus may or may not even exist.
