Are you saying that current AI is sapient? If not, how would you describe what it's doing?

    I have no idea. We are unable to prove that other humans are thinking and not just "mimicking intelligence" let alone something we've created. People approaching this subject with such certainty are imo being overly confident or outright dishonest.

    With respect to what I believe, since you asked, I think there is essentially no reason to distinguish "mimicking intelligence" with high fidelity from "intelligence". I don't feel comfortable talking to LLMs as if they were merely machines, but I don't approach them as if they were human either; they're in a very weird spot to me. I understand the simplicity of the math and programming behind them probably better than average, but that doesn't help me come to a conclusion on "thinking"
