In the case of AI, there is the additional difficulty that the AI may be trained to act like a human, or incentivized to appear sentient, which makes behavioral markers of sentience less reliable. [22] [23] Additionally, some chatbots have been trained to say they are not conscious. [24]
Artificial intelligence is becoming more and more sophisticated every year, what would it mean for humans if it one day achieves true consciousness?
Simply put, the hard-wired model that AI has adopted in recent years is a dead end in terms of computers becoming sentient. To explain why requires a trip back in time to an earlier era of AI hype.
"The sentience of a Google chat bot comes from it collecting data from decades worth of human texts — sentient human text," said Robert Pless, computer science department chair at George ...
Weak AI hypothesis: An artificial intelligence system can (only) act like it thinks and has a mind and consciousness. The first one he called "strong" because it makes a stronger statement: it assumes something special has happened to the machine that goes beyond those abilities that we can test. The behaviour of a "weak AI" machine would be ...
Bostrom and others argue that human extinction is probably the "default path" that society is currently taking, in the absence of substantial preparatory attention to AI safety. The resultant AI might not be sentient, and might place no value on sentient life; the resulting hollow world, devoid of life, might be like "a Disneyland without ...
A Google engineer voiced his theory that a chatbot was sentient. Experts say it's not that clever and the hype overshadows the real threat of AI bias. Don't worry about AI becoming sentient.
One argument for the importance of this risk references how human beings dominate other species because the human brain possesses distinctive capabilities other animals lack. If AI were to surpass human intelligence and become superintelligent, it might become uncontrollable.
