We're scaling up what computers can do. They still have as much consciousness as a rock (none). Don't lose sight of what they are, just because their capabilities seem human-like.

Do you have proof that humans are conscious?
It's accepted that we are, by consensus, because of what we experience individually. We know that scientific proof is lacking, although perhaps scientists in the field may disagree, I don't know for sure.
I know I'm conscious, but I cannot assume that you are conscious, perhaps you are just a stochastic parrot?
The only reasonable solution is to assume that anything that passes a true, well executed Turing test is conscious

Does your consciousness disappear without proof?
Does the consciousness of AGI disappear without proof?
Oh sure, I don't think LLM are sentient. But this paper is about hypothetical "general intelligence," no?
