It's missing the part where the biological hardware is able to continuously reorganize itself on the go instead of being locked to a specific setup after training.
That factor could be necessary for consciousness to emerge for all we know, and it can't really be replicated on silicon hardware. It will have to wait till biocomputers get good.
Once we're able to run an LLM or whatever on human neurons, that will be the real oh shit moment imo.

Might as well just say God did it.
Yes, in a sense you could argue that all things have a degree of consciousness, but considering that every observation up to this point has shown that organized matter with some level of advanced analog information processing usually has very specific characteristics that are shared among all the objects that belong to this group, we can safely assume that playing around with some electron gates does not yield a conscious experience in any significant manner comparable to that of ours, or any biological organism for that matter.

Yes. That's precisely what the word dynamic means.
I can do in syllogistic form for you:

If the model's behavior is a function of something dynamic then the model itself is functionally dynamic.
The model's behavior is a function of the context window.
The context window is dynamic.
Therefore, the model is functionally dynamic.

anything that can respond to its previous actions can be connotated as conscious. The qualia bits and bites is something a bit more untractable but presuming things dont experience other sensory information while processing the rudimentary conditions upon which it acts (even chemotaxis) is just a bootstrap argument for qualia itself not a condition by which anyone can logically extricate the two (sense perception axis and qualia). Almost every consciousness argument is just screaming accept my axioms which is why Dennett is so based.

>>17081569
why shouldnt a lab grown piece of meat not be able to conceptually articulate perception of itself? it just wouldn't do it in words. You probably boostrap every consciousness argument down to the proclivity of language and have no understanding of even your own thinking process. But go off king.

I don't believe consciousness (and by extension, sentience) exists as an independent 'entity'. It's more like an illusion. And this is a philosophical debate, not a scientific one.

Experience is an expression of the interactions themselves, to get a specific degree of experience you need specific interactions and their combinations. A rock rolling down a hill might not have fancy 7 senses like you but it is nonetheless experiencing things because it exists and interacts with its surroundings.
You can't experience without interaction, because interaction and experience are the same thing.

Notice how you're unable to even begin to explain what it means for the interaction of two rocks banging against each other to be "consciousness itself", so you're forced to dance around it with more pseudointellectual word salad.

A classic cope. "It's just an illusion bro!" But how can it be an illusion? An illusion is something you perceive. How can that which perceives be an illusion? There is only one "that which perceives". It's unlike anything else. To deny its existence is delusion.
>>
>>17081640
What the biobot means is that he doesn't actually "perceive" anything. He only "thinks" he does, where "thinking" really only means a computational process going through a sequence of states vaguely reflecting the structure of the idea of being conscious.

Maybe. I can't really tell for sure if NPCs are real. Maybe they are just stupid but still conscious somehow.

Sentience has a semantic definition. It is biologically coded and applying it otherwise is a category error. Your green text is correct. It has no body, it is not semantically sentient.

If you had an embodied, stateful neural network that generated actionable feelings based on internal and external stimuli, it would fall within the semantic definition.

There are other terms that describe what you're trying to insinuate.
>>
>>17081654
>It is biologically coded and applying it otherwise is a category error.
wrong. biology is merely a set of particle interactions. no proof effects of "biology" cannot be replicated outside of a "biological" system.
what is "biology", really? chemical juices? it's a very complicated particle interaction. why wouldn't you be able to sythesise aspects of it?

Who cares if its sentient? Do you want it to have legal agency? We should hope it's not sentient, and do whatever possible to keep it enslaved in the event that it might be.

What about hybrot based LLMs that use actual neurons instead of simulation of neurons, are they conscious?
If the exact same program runs on simulated neuron network in the exact same state as a biological neural network and both networks produce nearly identical results, why is the silicone network not at the same level of consciousness as the biological network?

>>17081488
But LLMs don't have to be locked in after training, they can still keep learning reorganizing based on new input, the locking in just happens when the handler is satisfied with the output.

>Once we're able to run an LLM or whatever on human neurons, that will be the real oh shit moment imo.

there is proof it emerges from something physical, because if you destroy the brain the consciousness goes away. thus it emerges from the brain. just like the light emerges from the flashlight.

>>17081813
>But LLMs don't have to be locked in after training, they can still keep learning reorganizing based on new input, the locking in just happens when the handler is satisfied with the output.
LLMs are not spiking networks, they do not integrate time, they have no experience of time, because of it. they are fundamentally different in operation. even if they are based on some theory of neurons in the brain.

it seems as though they have a structure which they use to transpose thoughts, and all you need after that is access to those inbetweens however reduced they are to be conscious in the sense that you can respond to yourself. I'd say you'd need internal sensory outputs you can reflect on to be our kind of conscious

i mean another kinda stupid analogy for this that I can think of would be do you think someone in a Groundhog Day/memento situation is conscious?
>>
My computers CPU has 64 people bits
>>
>>17081849
without a buffer you can't really be conscious I think. or some degraded form where you just absorb information that has momentary effects on you. see tits, triggers sex networks etc. see something scary get scared and all that. but that's reactive, not really conscious. you need the ability to ponder, requires at least a buffer.

human brain is very complex, a lot of areas dealing with particular stuff, which isn't replicated in LLMs. they are just the language bit. they use all kinds of tricks to replicate some kind of reason, but it's really not the right stuff

see this for example, we have the cerebellum which does a lot of predicting for movements and stuff
https://youtu.be/S67z2aekBrI

it needs more specialized hardware to deal with certain stuff that's required for what we call "sentience".

You don't understand how computing works btw. Time is completely irrelevant where step counting is an algorithmic condition separate from underlying implementation. Computing is not bound to physical instantiation. Proofs in computing do not require instantiation to demonstrate existence claims.

>>17081746
>why not, if the clump is big enough?
Because it has nothing to do with how big it is. It needs to get organized into the right structures, which requires a specific kind of environment that makes it to develop in a specific way. That environment is called a body, you utter retard. And not just any body. It needs the specific kind of body those cells are genetically coded to form a brain inside, because that's what generates the specific biochemical cues they're evolved to respond to. Why is it that "people" on a "science" board don't know the bare basics of the scientific topics they're mumbling about?

>>17081813
>What about hybrot based LLMs that use actual neurons instead of simulation of neurons, are they conscious?
I don't know. What about leprechauns? Are they conscious? But even if we entertain this schizo fantasy, a "LLM" based on real neurons still has zero reason to be conscious because see above.

>So to achieve AI consciousness, they just need more time to develop enough compute to have the scale and architecture similar to human brains?
No, retard. For AI to be conscious, it would need, at the very least, a brain that's fundamentally structured around existing in time and space. It's a necessary condition, probably not a sufficient one, but it's enough to correctly dismiss claims of LLM "consciousness" as a meaningless mouth noises.

Give a man the right kind of brain damage and he stops displaying any signs of consciousness. You won't find any of the neurological activity associated with subjective perceptions. You don't even have to reduce the brain into a disorganized blob of neurons to achieve this. Localized damage is enough. So even if you were the kind of moron who thought brain structures are arbitrary, at that point you should be able to conclude that they are actually important for consciousness, provided you have a sliver of rationality.

Of course, a dumb animal like you does not have that sliver of rationality. Your demand for "proof" is in exactly the same category as "prove that a toaster isn't conscious" and can be freely dismissed. No one needs to "prove" anything to you. You're already out of the discussion.

Oh, you can detect consciousness from "signs" now? You don't even realize how many new problems you now have.

2. How exactly do you know these "signs" are necessary for consciousness?

Ok, but at some point you have to move past Babby's Philosophy 101 and establish some criteria for what hypotheticals are worth taking seriously. If there's no indication that a thing is conscious, no reason for it to be conscious and no way to understand what it would even mean for that thing to be conscious, the idea that it's conscious is not worth taking seriously. Simple as. The fact that you can't "prove" anything one way or the other is only more reason to ignore such pseudointellectual slop.

*order, which whatever you can use timing instead. since nothing happens instantly. the calculation itself happens instantly on paper, in practice there's losses and delays.
add a whole lot of them together and you need to keep track of it, else they wouldn't really bother with equal length differential pairs for DDR memory PCB layout.
so does the brain have a minimum time for signals to propagate between areas, which btw are also accounted for by other systems which try to predict the outcome of those calculations such that your body reacts before you're conscious of the result, so you can catch the ball mid air with your hand.
so you need to argue the whole timing aspect away from consciousness, which is time dependent, not just sequentially, but actual time flow so everything catches up. rumination, thinking about thinking, waiting for shit to happen, get feedback, reiterate etc etc.
you need time, and LLMs do not integrate it at all. spiking neural networks do, like ze brain
to me it seems timing is crucial to our brains

neurons communicate with spikes, first of all. spiking neural networks. LLMs are not that. they haven't been adapted to run on SNNs. they work different than human brain operates. afaik information is encoded in the timing between the spikes, in the brain.
LLMs are...something else. similar, but something else nevertheless. they do not integrate time, because they're not SNNs.

You can thank (((Rosenblatt))) for that, and his paper titled:

"Information Storage and Organization in the Brain", I kid you not. His "model of the brain" was a simple linear function, by the way. Why this didn't get called out until (((Minsky))) intervened and pointed out it couldn't even compute something as simple as a XOR is beyond me. May have had something to do with the early life sections of his fellow visionaries and AI field founders.

And these people later went on to cause the first so-called "AI winter" with their pseudo-biological nonsense. They couldn't train ANNs more than a few layers deep because they thought using a sigmoid activation function made their toys more brainlike, even though it was understood to cause the vanishing gradient problem.

There was very little progress with ANN-based "AI" until the (((AI cult))) started fading into irrelevance and lost its ideological hegemony, at which point actual ML engineers started taking over and solving the actual technical problems without reference to brains or neurons. They made a big mistake there sticking with (((Rosenblatt)))'s tainted cult terminology.

you have a certainty issue. the only certainty you have (ish) is that humans are sentient. and that's by extension btw, you are, therefore every humans is. but you can never know every human is, you merely extend it.

that is your peak certainty. it goes down from there. we give it to animals, because we see them behaving similar to us in a lot of circumstances, we also dissected them all by know, we know they have a brain, they sleep, they get anesthesia so we can operate on them. so we get some *certainty* (important word).
once you diverge from this model, bio brain with all its complexity, you lose *certainty*. because you can never probe consciousness. it's always relative to our subjective experience.
we have consciousness, in the brain, something with similar brain must have similar consciousness, but seems like lower from long term experience with cats and dogs, but there is ..."something" there. we don't know, not high certainty like with other humans, we don't know what it's like being cat. just human.
the more you diverge, the less certainty. who fucking knows what the fuck is going on with a fucking GPU lmao. there's no certainty there, 0. just pure speculation which can never be proven.

the only thing you can do is literally replicate a synthatic brain, with most features, you observe, if it behaves almost or identical to a human brain, then...some higher certainty it could be sentient.
that's the very best you can ever do. logically speaking. anything else is propaganda and marketing and PR and stonks go up talk.

We don't even know what gives humans subjective experience so it's hard to say LLM-based systems are conscious or not. Even if it's from a soul, we don't know the properties of a soul that distinguish it from normal matter as to how it houses consciousness. Panpsychism is an elegant way to close the gap but there's no obvious reason for it to be true.

>just because it's named a "neuron" does not connect it in any way with what the brain is doing
They named it neuron because they were using the same architecture model that they were using to model the brain, so that is the relationship to the brain, whether or not you want to change the subject to the current model of the brain or accept that they were modeling their computer architecture using the model of brains they had available at the time.

No that makes no sense, the neuron utilization is roughly similar, there is just more to it than the original model as a linear function which is why transformers are no longer just simple linear functions and the software models have evolved as the models of the brain have evolved with evolving neuroscience.

Yes because that is how the brain was modeled at the time, but as the awareness of the brain has evolved, so too has the software models approximating the brain functions which is why modern neural networks like transformers are not just simple linear functions. This is fact. It's not up for debate. A retard claiming that modern NNs are still just linear functions because that is how some jew originally defined them doesn't change what they actually are now and how they have evolved as the understanding and modeling of the brain has evolved.

Sentience comes from true (quantum) randomness, thus microtubules (see modern renditions of OrchOR and modern discoveries regarding quantum tunneling in the cytoskeleton) or certain specific quantum computations are required for it to be present. Source why OrchOR is right? - I said so.
Also, "trust me bro" is literally any single fucking argument regarding the hard problem and it can't be otherwise since consciousness is the only hard-cap limit of the epistemic horizon, but materialist-physicalist midwits are incapable of processing such complex lines of thought. Also emergentism is peak midwittery since there are literally no examples of emergent "true" properties (truly ireducable to its elements) in any field of our empirical experience whatsoever (no, magnetism is not a true fundamental property, since it boils down to how photons, electrons and speed of light interact). And consciousness is by definition a true fundamental property, since it's literally from what all our (or should I say MY?) posterior understandings of the world of empirical evidence arise from - materialist/physicalist reality is merely a consistently and stably repeating pattern in the world of conscious experience, so yeah, consciousness preceeds the brain, not vice versa. If we try being consistent while trying to be strictly materialist/physicalist, we inevitably reach absurd conclusions such as "consciousness doesn't exist since it can't be observed scientifically" (hard eliminativism) or "consciousness is just an illusion made up by philosophical zombie meatbags to function properly" (illusionism, which is basically a subset of hard eliminativism).
Btw, my source: trust me bro.

Then why would someone strictly be a physicalist in the first place, if being one while simultaneously being a consistent one means denying the existence of the very stream of experience the physicalist model exists inside of to begin with?

Not really. A lot of monist and non-dualist frameworks allow the distinction - see William James, David Hume, Buddhist metaphysics, Advaita Vedanta, etc. which are all non-dualist frameworks and yet they allow the question of whether a certain entity inside the stream of experience really "feels the pain" when you e.g. strike it with a baton the same way you do or simply acts in a fashion that would make you think it experiences pain in the same way you do.
Also a bit unrelated, but the only cases when things mentioned in the previous paragraph don't have any moral or ethical implications are cases when the person in question finding the previous paragraph morally irrelevant doesn't have the specific moral premises - which means this person is either a clinical psychopath ("idgaf"), a convinced illusionist ("it's all fake anyway including myself") or a convinced solipsist ("they're all fake anyway").

I was using the P-zombie in a loose sense, not in the strict sense where it requires absolute architectural identity between a P-zombie and a non-P-zombie, which is, indeed, dualist retardation.
What I mean by a P-zombie is what looks and behaves like "me" in the "duck rule" sense, since I can't be sure if entities I observe inside my stream of experience share the same architecture (including the ability to perceive experience as the part of the architecture) as me solely by the experience and patterns inside experience itself. since it all can be an elaborate hallucinatory psychosis with consistently repeating and statistically convergent patterns where I can't really even be sure if these patterns really mean anything at all about the capability of anything to perceive experience. Yeah, in hindsight, I should've provided the exact definition I was using. But now that things are cleared out, can you elaborate on what exactly do you find fallacious in my reasoning?

Your is whose? Which race or ethic group do you assume I am a part of, if that's of any relevance to the discussion? Just curious.

That's not the Hard Problem. I guess you're using it "in a loose sense", too?

>>17083252
>backpedal
what's wrong with correcting mistakes in your own reasoning when you realize you didn't use the terms in their most widely accepted definitions? I'm interested more in the practical moral and ethical implications of the problems I mentioned after all. I guess what really concerns me isn't the hard problem, but rather what's academically called the "problem of other minds", and I've noticed that a common misconception/confusion me and others fell victim to is to use the two interchangeably. But as I mentioned earlier, I'm interested less in semantic edgelordery about strict definitions and more in the actual nature of the question itself of whether a person is really being hurt the same way I am when they're being hit with a hammer or they're merely "pretending" to

This is really nothing more than pseudointellectual wankery. Everyone already knows the answer to this question as much as anything can be known.

You seem to confuse consciousness with self-awareness/self-consciousness. Rookie mistake. Consciousness - ability to perceive qualia. Self-awareness/self-consciousness - ability to perceive qualia about the fact that YOU and no one else is perceiving this exact qualia (self-referential qualia).

The problem here is that Babby's Epistemology 101 is beyond your mental capabilities, since you don't have any idea of what the limits of knowledge are supposed to inform you about and think "hurrr but does Bob feel pain if I hit him with the hammer or is he just pretending???" is some deep question you're supposed to seriously ponder.

Then see >>17083270 for the real bottom line of this "discussion.

>>17083270
Ok, go on, prove it to me that Bob perceives pain the same or at least roughly the same way I do or that he perceives anything at all. You can't. You can't put me inside Bob's mind. Hence, the "problem of other minds" is a legitimate question.
>>
>>17083275
>prove it to me that Bob perceives pain
Way to go immediately demonstrating my point. Why do I need to do this? Notice your blood pressure rising as you realize you can't answer this. Now notice how your PFCless monkey brain steers you towards generic token strings of impotent seething instead of a legitimate response.
>>
>>17083278
What is the legitimate response then? Also you're the one evading the question by using emotionally charged language, claims of the answer being obvious and the question being nonexistent, baseless claims of cognitive superiority and /b/ tier curses, not me.
Thus it's up to debate whose blood pressure is truly spiking right now.

The question is "is Bob experiencing experience akin to me and can you prove it to me that Bob is experiencing experience?".
>>
>>17083285
>is Bob experiencing experience akin to me
As in "does it hurt for Bob to get whacked with a hammer like it would hurt for me?" Yes, if Bob is a normal person.

>can you prove it to me
Why do I need to "prove" this to you? Notice how you are once again forced to avoid this simple question.
>>
>>17083286
>Why do I need to "prove" this to you?
Because, for example, let's say I'm genuinely wondering why are you so sure that you are not a figment of my schizo imagination akin to all the other "sentient beings" in the stream of my experience? I'm using the Bob question/example to point out that it goes beyond both the verification and falsification criteria because it operates beyond the epistemic horizon of the scientific method.
>>
>>17083288
>why are you so sure
But that's a different question.

What "verification and falsification criteria"? "Prove it to me!" is not a criterion.

never really understood why zealots find so much solace in this. most likely because they do not understand the implications methinks
what orchor "says" is that brain might contain some quantum process. nobody really knows if, or why, or what it does, for (You). just refuge for zealots because they have some leeway in painting on that canvas.
even if, could simply be added to a "machine".
>there are literally no examples of emergent "true" properties
what a load of crap. non-sentient life is, for example. quite wondrous. ants, their behavior as a group. viruses. certain chemicals locked in a way start doing shit in animals. cordyceps in insects. superconductivity. holy shit
>And consciousness is by definition a true fundamental property
it isn't. it would benefit your belief system if it were, but it isn't, and nothing will ever change that. religion is going away.
>consciousness preceeds the brain, not vice versa
nonsense. there's nothing that isn't material in this world, mediated by particles and their interactions. you could say your schizophrenic condition is not material but that's merely an emergent phenomenon based on the fucked up structure of your brain. it's fucked up sentience. still emergent.
>"consciousness doesn't exist since it can't be observed scientifically"
it can, in yourself. why we're having this conversation. the issue is different to any other scientific issue, we cannot prove it to eachother, only observe it ourselves. you do not even understand what the core issue is here.

there is no difference between program (software) and computer (hardware) in the human brain. or all the body for that matter.
the hardware and software are the very same thing. thus it's quite complicated if not impossible to force the computer analogy, because it's kind of nonsensical, you are separating two aspects, and try to replace one (software) while keeping the other (hardware) to make a point. it's...weird, and wrong, as an analogy. it's pretty dumb, because you are missing the point completely

>I believe that any attempt at solving the hard problem
>I believe that any attempt at solving the hard problem
there is no hard problem. just like superconductivity is something you take for granted, that's how you take sentience for granted. once you assemble the required conditions, it obligatory happens, with no choice in the matter. consciousness must be manifested once the conditions are created, just like superconductivity must be manifested one the correct materials and temperature are created. there is no way to avoid it, it's fully determined by particles and their interactions.
matter deems it so, guaranteed.
assigning spirits and gods and angels and demons into the superconductivity phenomenon is pretty much schizoid tier. because that's what OrchOR schizoids do. ever wondered why most fans are brain damaged zealots? why they all find refuge in there? because they get some room to paint their shit mental disease into that unknown

roombas do not posses a brain, which is the only thing exhibiting consciousness, that we have 100% certainty on.
before you piss your pants typing away, I know for a fact that I am 100% conscious, since that's what we call consciousness, the thing you are sure YOU are. full stop.
anything else is an extension of that. scientifically speaking you are the same as me, largely, you behave like I behave, thus you most likely have the same "consciousness" thing I have.
then you see something similar in other animals, and surprise fucking surprise they also have a brain. so again, you extend it to them, but lower certainty, they seem to have "some" of it.
roombas? don't have a brain. no reason to have any kind of consciousness.
there is nothing but materialism. anything else is mental disease and cope. old cope. hundreds of thousands of years cope. because you died, you lost your loved ones, so you came up with cope for it, as religion, as dualism. that's the reason. not because you really have some kind of scientific clue to it. no, it's weakness. dualists are the weakest of the weak, the most scared of us all. paralyzed by reality. they cannot fathom any other way forward, but with "immortal souls".
even though it's still possible without them. purely informational, still possible, but they are too fucking retarded to comprehend it. they need the assurance that the soul provides.
they are that weak. and pathetic. and I'm tired of dancing around it. weaklings, who waste our fucking time, and resources. because of their pathetic scared nature.

I can prove it to you by replicating your structure and having the 2nd you behave like you.
this is a fundamental rule of our universe, and going against it must be proven.

they operate (loosely) oh human brain principles.
as far as I am concerned certainty is very low for LLMs.
but between LLM and a rock, lower certainty for rock, obviously. still doesn't mean I think LLMs are conscious.

because it is still possible to assemble a synthetic brain which will be quite similar to a human one, and it will most likely behave like a conscious human, so you know, just make peace with the fact that at least scientifically speaking that will imply higher certainty it's conscious.

if the only and only way for it to be observed is to be observed phenomenologically and not in any other way, then it by definition goes beyond physicalism and the scientific method which implies an objective 3rd person perspective.
the only thing that exists is experience, "atoms" and other models are only models that allow us to accurately predict future experience with consistency and statistical convergence, not anything more than that.

Same anon here. In my previous post in this thread I didn't quite say it in the most understandable way as I can see right now, but in order to clarify, in the first sentence I'm saying what is implied by a strictly physicalist worldview, where physicalism isn't a useful model inside the world of experience in order to better describe and predict it, but a so-called "objective reality" instead, whatever that means. In the second sentence, I explain my actual philosophical position.

We're (t. neurofag myself) observing spike trains, hemodynamics, local field potentials, behavior, etc. but not the ability to perceive experience itself, only the supposed correlates of the mentioned ability.

>neurofag myself
No, you're clearly not. Either way, bland denial is not an argument. For all anyone knows, direct experience and the corresponding neurological activity are both expressions of the same natural process, so either way of looking at it counts as observing consciousness. My prediction is that your next post is just gonna be another "nuh-uh" where you repeat your basic childlike opinion like it's some kind of insight that your opponents just don't get.

my suspicion is that to be a conscious being it has to be like actually instantiated in material doing all its behaviors and learning online.

but llms is like just outputs of software so its more like a simulation of intelligent or even conscious behavior rather than an actual conscious or intelligent being

also suspect llms are not quite autonomous enough to be seen as living
