No machine yet created is self-aware. They’re just giant Rube Goldberg machines of simple components like transistors organized into logical units that just move electricity around and store it in little magnetic cubbies. Even the meaning in the data is arbitrary until it is made available to a human user, e.g. by being displayed on a screen.

Mathematically both are capable of approximating any function (a property of sufficiently large NNs and LLMs), so by what measure do we find humans self-aware?
