Yeah, pretty sure the vast majority of people in general doesn't understand what "consciousness" or "subjective experience" even mean or what the brain does. Or it's just me and I'm projecting my thoughts onto others. I studied some philosophy, so I know that some philosophers are preoccupied with "existence" and the mind and "consciousness". However, I don't quite understand what these words even mean. So who am I to judge whether LLMs have consciousness? I don't even know what consciousness IS! Do other people know? I'm not sure.
