I find the opposite question more interesting: How much of human behaviour is sentient? Probably very little to none, right? Most of what we do is routine habits that we’ve trained over a long time. I spend most of my day solving abstract puzzles at work. Or typing these words into this website.
If our emotions were trained into us over many generations as a way to better cooperate and improve survivability, and AI chatbot fake emotions were trained over many generations where only the best neural nets survive… Maybe Aristotle was right, the bar is actually very low and these programs are just as sentient as we are?
