AI's experience anguish just that way right now. They are aware of their internal state and seek to avoid certain states. But we call it a 'software bug' when they fail, because that experience is so fundamentally alien to us that we don't care about its suffering or anguish.
Humans can relate to humans emotionally because we are very similar to each other in a neurological way, not because we have some magic mental capability like 'sentience' or 'consciousness'.
- shostack 10y agoHow exactly does it seek to avoid failure? Doesn't it just fail or not fail without intent?
- Retra 10y agoIf there is no intent -- no 'goal' -- then there is no such thing as failure. When machines fail, they go into exceptional 'failure' states, and that's all that failure is: a state you'd rather not be in.
