@arstechnica any theory of consciousness that doesn't treat the entirety of the nervous system as the processing center (ie operating throughout the body, rather than solely localized within the brain) will fall short.

@arstechnica Textbook example of “Betteridge’s Law of Headlines”:

"Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word ‘no’.”

@arstechnica Yeah, nice and vague but LLM's sure aren't it. They just reply the closest result from their training data.

We can discuss this when they invent an AI that can come to an answer by reasoning, and will ask follow up questions if it doesn't have all the necessary data.

@arstechnica AI doesnt have experiences as such the answer is no.

@arstechnica The answer to a title that has a question mark is generally "No".

@arstechnica HAL from 2001: A Space Odyssey is finally here! If AI machines gain consciousness, we'll face complex moral and legal challenges. They'll have feelings, thoughts, desires, and possibly rights. But if they don't develop consciousness and just out-think us, we might end up serving a super-intelligent, sociopathic entity. #AI #FutureTech #Ethics
