No he hasn't, you are completely misrepresenting his argument.
He has been arguing for strong AI, but against it being a UTM, on the claim of there being problems that humans can solve that are provably non-computable.
He may be wrong, but not because he thinks conciousness is magic. I have read a fair amount of his work and he explicitly disavows such a view.
