I don't care that a computer spits out words saying it's self aware. That's just what it's been built to do. Is it conscious that it's consciousness is artificial and does not exist?
i tend to agree.
the great arthur c. clarke famously said that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic".
i don't think a.i. is self aware. i think it's very good at faking it. and some people obviously buy it.
maybe the difference is the issue?
