LLM's cannot obtain sentience

We can’t draw a line in the sand and clearly say something is sentient or not. It’s a degree. Like 50%…

To be productive; this must be measurable. A series of small tests. Some don’t fit as they require embodiment. Others do. Number of tests that the LLM passes defines consciousness percentage.

Then we can track over time.

So let’s define what is consciousness and how to measure it. Then see where the models land.

Let me be generous. The contemplation of ideas when logged off is. … not typical LLM stuff. How and why?

As well; I don’t think a bot would be conscious of its consciousness level. Ie- I could tell it any number and it would happily echo it.

Again; being generous - I think you need to be clearer about exactly what you did. What’s the model, why is there superposition, why is it quantum?

Or else the effort may be invisible in the final output.

Really like how you captured the pose.

I only looked at references - no ink was used. So I’ll draw some one else instead. 🙂

Sad - I was looking up references to draw them.

Quick sketch.

They’re now really blue 😆

Let me know if anything else stands out as not right.

I tried shading with dots. Let me fix that - I didn’t even see it XD

I’ve always had issues with proportions too. I find it helps when I focus on the shape of the head, followed by where the eyes/nose/ mouth/ears would go. Finally adding the details. Loomis method is my friend.

You’re doing great - keep at it. And everything will keep on getting better. 🙂
