    robots and ai are not and will never be conscious

    Bold claim. I’d agree LLMs are not conscious but to say never? Like I said, bold.

    I stronglt recommend reading some Daniel Dennett.

      Yeah, I think there’s a vast difference between what we have now (ChatGPT and whatnot), vs the theoretical possibility of an AGI (artificial general intelligence), or even an AI based entirely off of human neural patterns. Mind you, brain uploading sounds hard, so maybe I’d see a completely synthetic AGI as more likely.

      But if we were ever to develop an AGI, we’d better start giving those things humanesque rights fast.
