How do you know you are a conscious person in the first place? Cogito ergo sum presupposes the idea of an "I." How could you know that you are not just a bunch of unrelated senses combined together to provide the illusion of a body, and a consciousness therein.

We don't, not empirically anyway. But since we can't know that we can't know that we can't know etc... you may as well just trust your senses and thoughts if being a person who exists and lives with other people who also exist is a pleasing concept to you.
