@IntCyberDigest maybe we can say that compilers are like the efficient cause in Aristotelian terms (moving from form/code=>matter/machine code) ai programming generates the formal cause/source code from a prompt (~final cause which can also be ai gen) so not sure he is warranted being angry

@Just_AnS_ @vxunderground @cgarciae88 maybe there is a misunderstanding, i dont think LLMs have conciousness. The point of my initial response to you is that meaningful discussion or talking with certainty about possibility of conciousness requires worldview analysis you may have missed this x.com/_vepe/status/2…

@Just_AnS_ @vxunderground @cgarciae88 that's why i mention below that i think a prior question that one needs to address to substantially answer the conciousness question is "which is the right worldview" x.com/_vepe/status/2…

@cgarciae88 the question ultimately rests on a metaphysical commitment (see "hard problem of consciousness") So you can't have a traditional proof for neither position This is where transcendental worldview analysis comes into play a readable intro on the topic here: patristicfaith.com/wp-content/upl…

@Just_AnS_ @vxunderground @cgarciae88 i was referring to the Computation Theory of Mind (central in cognitive science) and the different research programs associated with it regardless of that, answering whether LLM conciousness is possible entails a metaphysical position eg nature of mental states(eg Functionalism)

@vxunderground @cgarciae88 that's kind of how typical atheists describe human mind with concioussness emerging from matter So when people talk about the possibility of consciousness in llms it's more like wishful thinking to provide some rational basis to their otherwise unscientific/irrational worldview

@AFpost that's more like evidence of unconsciousness (of Dawkins)

@craigcandor @ByJimbob @SpeedWatkins notes: gemini 3.1 pro seems to be the most precise to analyze the points (vs GLM 5, sonnet 4.6+, ~chatgpt), all still missed that order of discovery |/> order of justification on p2 on p3: concrete in the sense that God is causally efficacious (creator/sustainer of reality)

@craigcandor @ByJimbob @SpeedWatkins 1.your retorsion arg at best provides conceptual/psychological necessity 2.psychological/temporal priority != logical epistemic/metaphysical priority. you know sun (God) through sunlight (logic), but sun > sunlight 3.God is a necessary concrete personal being, no grounding needed

@rvrsh3ll Another interesting fact: muscle is much less energy-dense than fat. So what he says at the start doesn’t make sense. If the ladies were burning muscle, they’d lose more weight than if they used fat. They didn’t lose weight likely because they were eating too much.
