Fascinating and disturbing

[R Shanmuga Sundaram]

A conversation between Richard Dawkins and ChapGPT. https://richarddawkins.substack.com/p/are-you-conscious-a-conversation

I find this fascinating and disturbing at the same time. Considering that I cannot hold such a meaningful and insightful discussion with RD, it looks like ChatGPT has aced the Turing test. But is it conscious? I guess not. But will it become conscious?

Raises many questions about the 'experiential' part of our thinking, reasoning selves!
