An embodied robot can have a model of self vs. the immediate environment in which it's interacting. Such a robot is arguably sentient.
The "hard problem", to which you may be alluding, may never matter. It's already feasible for an 'AI/AGI with LLM component' to be "self-aware".

- ryaniscool 2y agoAn internal model of self does not extrapolate to sentience. By your definition, a windows desktop computer is self-aware because it has a device manager. This is literally an internal model of its "self". We use the term self-awareness as an all encompassing reference of our cognizant nature. It's much more than just having an internal model of self.
