I can shove Lambda server in an "MRI" and see that it does stuff evern when it is not answering your questions. > People need to stop confusing machines doing useful work with consciousness. We can't confuse anything with cosciousness since we don't know what it is. I am not claiming lamda is consc. but that your arguments are invalid. > You are conscious because there is an 'I', a self, that experiences that process. I maybe can tell about my I, but not about yours, there is a whole philosphy movement behind it. > It has as much neurological activity as a rock Slime mold doesn't have neurological activity. Is it sentient? It sure knows how to find food and solve problems that are considered very hard for humans. > when it isn't doing that, it's not doing anything You also go to sleep every day... No matter what I believe any kind of argument I heard so far is just wishfull thinking. We simply don't know if anything is sentient or what does it even mean to be sentient.
