    Very soon, when robots will indeed have feelings, you will be able to discuss that with them. Already, some humans, halfway between geniuses and psychotics, propose that a few earthly artificial beings are sentient.

      Code up an LLM from scratch and it’ll quickly disabuse you of any notion that it has feelings. It can definitely look like it has feelings, but it’s a machine.

                LLMs are not the ultimate evolution of artificial beings and emergent properties shows that simple systems can produce more complex capacities.

                i want to believe in a better future although science gives us reasons to believe otherwise.
                We humans are limited and mortal so having artificial bodies to give us eternal life and extended capacities could be good … but it also could be a disaster if billionaire psychopaths were the ones to get these powers before good people do.
