    i mean, consciousness is hard to prove. how do we test for awareness? a being can be a complete idiot and still aware, conscious, sentient, all that bullshit.

    my standard for LLMs is probably too high because they give me erroneous data a lot, but the shit that i ask the search engine comes back wrong in the LLM bullshit almost every time (GIGO tho). it takes me back to some of my favorite fiction on the subject. where do we draw the line? i’m just glad i’m not a computer ethicist.

      I don’t think we are anywhere near it being “true conciseness” but I think we are dangerously close to the average person not really caring that it isn’t.
