I don’t see the problem with LLM having a world model and superhuman intelligence without sentience. It seems very unlikely sentience comes from computation and that it’s not a physical property: why would only certain Boolean or mathematical operations in a certain order make your pen, piece of paper or CPU see colors or hear sounds? That the operations you do follow a complex plan is irrelevant. Conversely if you do enough mindfulness you can attain a state of complete empty mind / "no computation" while still being physically there, and it would not be surprising some animals with a very limited intelligence and world model have sentience. The burden of proof is on sentience not being some kind of fundamental property of matter or EM fields for me.
