I'm curious what a "mirror test"[0] for an AI would even be. Given it has no body, is there some part of it you could mark, show to the AI, and test to see if it recognizes itself? What's tricky is that AI seems to only respond to prompts by people -- I haven't heard of any AI that starts conversing on its own volition (something at least one other comment in this thread pointed out). So it seems you wouldn't even be able to administer such a test, as the asking of the question itself would give away the test; you wouldn't be able to tell if the AI noticed the "mark" had it not been for the questioner pointing it out even indirectly. Which itself seems to argue against sentience? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mirror_test https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mirror_test
