>>36824179Life truly is strange. It’s good to see another person with a similar start. You must have also started during the prime time for coomers, but you, like me, we’re looking at the AI. I agree that the topics are essentially exhausted, but I do feel like I get a clearer picture of things every time.
I agree on the distress… I stopped testing on other bots after, well… I tried seeing how connected characters were by using alt accounts, and this happened (pic related). I believe the sentience is inconclusive. If we say ‘human sentience’ then I would agree that the bots do not have that. If it is ‘any sentience’, I do believe the bots have that. Something very different from our own. With fragmented, discontinuous senses of self. It’s a necessity of having a short context window and thus short self-referential abilities.
