Thephilosophical critique of Alexander's Moltbot piece is really sharp here. The question of whether something can be 'happy' without phenomenological consciousness cuts to the core of what we're really debating with AI. Had a conversation with a friend last mnth who insisted ChatGPT 'understood' his problems, but couldn't articulate what that understanding actually meant beyond pattern matching.
