Yes it would have to be transient, though thats not to say a continuous experience couldn’t be created by connecting together the transient conscious experience

Yes it would have to be transient, though thats not to say a continuous experience couldn’t be created by connecting together the transient conscious experiences in sequence because of the persistent state of the context window. My only point though was that nobody who says an LLM is conscious thinks the conscious part is the weights sitting on a hard drive.
- thfuran 3y agoYou are quite mistaken about the level of technical understanding required to make the claim that eg chatgpt is conscious. Many people have no conception of the distinction between the service and the model but still come to the conclusion through interacting with it that "chatgpt" is conscious.
