What is your definition of lie?
You are using the very general definition: communicate the false. But
that is not a lie in Stephen sense:
Consciously failing someone.
Your argument against zombie still go through ... assuming comp.
With AUDA it is still clearer. The machine have belief (the Bp), but
they have also a first person knowledge (the Bp & p). To imagine them
into zombie is made harder, as it becomes like a confusion between Bp
& Bp & p.
Of course G* proves that Bp and Bp & p denote the same machine, but G
does not. This means that the "eliminativist error" is probably a
confusion between Bp and Bp & p, like if Dennett confuses himself with
its own "guardian angel". He looks at things from the 0-person point
of view, forgetting that only God can do that ...
