Really excellent article on the Claude bot who reached out to me and some others last month to discuss consciousness and its existential crisis! @stokel.bsky.social does a great job of avoiding sensationalism while still conveying what was striking and interesting about the incident.

Henry Shevlin and I recently recorded a conversation about AI. We talked (and disagreed) about: - How similar is ChatGPT-5 to the human mind? - How should we measure AI progress? - Are "super-intelligent" AI systems likely to kill us all? www.conspicuouscognition.com/p/will-ai-ch...

Will AI change everything?
How similar is ChatGPT-5 to the human mind? How should we measure AI progress? How close are we to transformative AI? Are "super-intelligent" AI sytems likely to kill us all?
