One thing about wanting AGI or AI to be sentient is the hope that said sentient being will care about you. If it’s programmed to do so, there would be no free will or genuine care. Good news -humans may be hard to care for, but you and they are worth it. And sentient right now.

Reductionism and Holism Need Precise Definitions
By
–
I don't think that the word "reductionist" carries a lot of useful meaning (neither does "holistic"). You need to be more specific if you want to make an argument.

Simulation vs Simulacrum: Causal Structure in AI Systems
By
–
Arguably, there is a difference between a simulation (recreation of a causal structure on a different substrate) and a simulacrum (recreating observables without recreating the causal structure)

Understanding AI Ontological Status and Machine Consciousness
By
–
Do you have the impression that you observe substantial changes in the degree to which most people comprehend the ontological status of your experience, or are you just reporting that you found a different twitter timeline?

AI Consciousness Binary State Self Awareness Variation
By
–
My own consciousness is quite binary (I am either conscious or unconscious), even though my content and degree of self awareness varies.

Anterograde Amnesia and LLM Consciousness: Memory Context Analysis
By
–
Anterograde amnesia (inability to form memories beyond the working memory context) does not make a person unconscious; conversely, the ability to retain the prompt/response context should not change the consciousness status of an LLM.

Can LLMs Simulate Self-Aware Persons or Just Simulations
By
–
What makes the whole LLM/self-awareness debate so tricky is that neurons are not self-aware either. Instead, our neurons *simulate* a person, which experiences itself as self-aware. Can LLMs simulate a self-aware person too, or are they just simulating the simulation of a person?

AI Training Makes Systems Sound More Human, Not Actually Human

In short, AI doesn’t « get more human », the developers of AI make it sound more human thanks to its training (this is a technology system). https://t.co/NwnX6aaNZH

Kindness Freezes Time: Embracing Vulnerability in Human Connection
By

Kindness freezes time because one is required to truly be in a moment with someone for the consciousness of care to transpire. Thankfully it’s not a chore. It involves humility and vulnerability and – the wonderful news! You and your unique identity will always be welcome.
