Since when exactly has artificial intelligence ever implicated the existence of a mind at all? It's always been about knowledge, intuition and the application of such, so of course large language models at least technically count.
If you specifically want a mind, then perhaps you're interested in something more specific than mere artificial intelligence.

But broad consumer perception is a totally different kind of thing and there I see a lot of artificial-mind pre-god perceptions. At least the term intelligence, historically human- or creature-bound, will not come off into self-abstraction as mere product too easily.
- LoganDark 2mo agoSometimes I see arguments of the form "what does it matter whether or not there is a real mind or mind-like construct, if the output is nonetheless just as comparable?". My answer, I think, is that a more rigorous process gives me greater confidence in the output. I don't consider current LLMs very rigorous by that definition. I end up trying to add most of the rigor myself, and even then I'm not as confident.
