    You are completely fbcked up if you believe that an LLM has a soul or a personality you imbeciles. In this case if you put this crap on the same level as a HUMAN! you have completely dehumanized yourself and equated yourself to fvcking metal boards. Meaning – if anyone k1llls you – it’s like switching off an LLM. Fvcktards

    If anybody out there that believes that AI will become conscious at any point, please get in touch, I have a unicorn I would like to sell you. We need to stop these stupid conversations and focus on safety, compliance, ethics, governance, and education for the general public on how to use and get the best out of these tools. We don’t even have a proper definition of consciousness, nor do we understand human consciousness either.
