npub1zdp33shl69xr0uq3x8n5gsjykq9upycwh6nqm02c3f6x0frrn0dq42vqv8 (npub1zdp…vqv8) I’m not convinced of the existence of consciousness anyway. If it means having a model of the self with proprioceptive feedback, we’re at best c-grade. We hold inaccurate models (sometimes wildly) of what we’re like all the time.

The kicker for me would be an inability to change (which is why I think humans struggle to be conscious). These robots, despite working for a length of time comparable to all humanity, haven’t evolved despite reproducing.
