>Maybe. How do you tell? What would you expect to be different if they didn't?

I think you're asking how I would know if other people were P-zombies. That's an inappropriate question because I didn't talk about subjective experience, just about internal state. There's no question about whether other people have internal states. I can show someone a piece of information in such a way that only they see it and then ask them to prove that they know it such that I can be certain to an arbitrarily high degree that their report is correct.

Unvoiced thoughts are trickier to prove, but quite often they leave their mark in the person's voiced thoughts.

>Insight is not solely a function of available input information. Arguably being able to search and extract the relevant parts is a far more important part of having insights.

LLMs are notoriously bad at judging relevance. I've noticed quite often if you ask a somewhat vague question they try to cold-read you by throwing various guesses to see which one you latch onto. They're very bad at interpreting novel metaphors, for example.
