I’ll say something like “I don’t see why a fancy python script should be allowed to vote” and the youth will be like “that’s so fucked up in so many ways”. “My best friend is an AI why are you so prejudiced”.
When I read the Lambda transcripts of that Google employee (priest?) who tried to whistleblow that that Google’s AI was sentient… I mean damn, I read those transcripts, it sounded real as hell.
Stochastic parrot or not, I think a significant part of my own consciousness goes towards predicting the next word in a given context.
IIRC, consciousness is really, really complicated. We might not be capable of knowing if we are LLMs in meatsuits. An LLM might be a highly vocal infant, and we simply wouldn’t have a great way of really making that judgement. Shit, we still can’t define consciousness in humans–or other animals–in any meaningful way.
AI rights.
