This weekend, I had been intending to start writing a careful and comprehensive ‘how to argue against the people who believe AI is conscious’ piece. But, at this very minute, everyone is going crazy on the internet shouting at each other about these things, so here instead is my quick attempt to help!
If you scroll down, you’ll see that the bulk of this piece takes the form of a list of questions. You can either read straight through these questions, or you can approach them as a ‘choose your own adventure’ philosophical resource, jumping between the questions based on the answers you give! I’ll begin, however, by noting two brief bits of context.
Thanks for reading the ends don't justify the means! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work.
