As artificial intelligence begins to mimic consciousness with uncanny skill, we need design norms and laws that prevent it from being mistaken for sentient beings.

    Thats not directly engineered.

    They arent themselves making it that way, they’re just selecting the ones that happen to be that way.

    Its like genetic breeding.

    If I breed chickens and specifically breed red ones so every generation I get redder and redder chickens, thats not “engineering” them to be red.

    I just kept the ones that happened to be red for the next generation.

    Thats not engineering, its not deterministic, its just pulling the slot machines handle enough times until it pays out.

    If I say “Im gonna keep pulling this slot machines handle until I hit the jackpot”, then do that, hit the jackpot after 2000 pulls, and stop there, would you say I “engineered” the jackpot occurring just cuz I stopped and my last pull was on the jackpot outcome?
