I don't understand how that relates to my comment or the situation in the original article.

  >So still not sentient and not actually asking for a lawyer. >One does eventually need to ask: what is the value of general intelligence, once we do create it? >I can't imagine any net-positive outcome from creating it, and there are an unbelievable number of terrifying possibilities (one of which is already happening at this early milestone). It relates, brcause everyone piles on the bandwagon to stay away from GAI, but doesn't articulate the fact that Artificisl Intelligence's utility as a tool stops the moment we have to recognize a sentient entity being behind the black box, with all the perverse incentives around setting the definition of "sentience" that entails. If you can't see someone aggressively lobbying to have sentience defined in regulations just so in the forseeable future to get out of having to pay or recognize the self-sovereignty of a colloquially sentient AI... I got news for ya. You're more optimistic than I am. Basically, my cynicism is pegged off the charts atm.
