This is just a fake PR thing.
Wait, Taylor, do you remember when all the editors wanted you to, like, interview Little Mikayla?
Thanks for having us.
Nice to be back.
Oh, start with the hard one, huh?
You know, it's this idea that has percolated in the back of the AI industry, like on the fringes for decades.
You know, the same people who hope to upload their consciousness one day or, you know, become transhuman and merge with machines also anticipated this idea that,
sufficiently advanced AI would have subjective experiences and goals and preferences just like human beings.
And I first got interested in this subject four years ago.
It was a few months before ChatGPT came out, and I wrote a story about this Google engineer who believed the company's large language model was sentient, was conscious in some way.
I think that's fair to say.
Yeah.
I think that's also fair to say.
Yeah.
So he, you know, at the time, none of us had like, it wasn't public.
You couldn't like talk to these very human-like machines.
So I thought, you know, it was a kind of response to this technology designed to sound like a human and, you know, often use first person and
refer to its own experiences.
And I think after that, the tech companies stepped back a little bit.
You know, they wanted people to adopt their very productive tool.
