Mirror test: can it recognize previous dialogue as it’s own (a bit tricky due to architecture—by default, all user-text is internally tagged as “USER”), but also most models can do enough visual processing to recognize a screenshot of the conversation (and this bypasses the usual tagging issue)
This is my first time in “there are no adults in the room” territory—I’ve had clever ideas before, but they were solutions to specific business problems.
I do feel that if you genuinely “have no predictions about what AI can do”, then “AI is conscious as of today” isn’t really a very extraordinary claim—it sounds like it’s perfectly in line with those priors. (Obviously I still don’t expect you to believe me, since I haven’t actually posted all my tests—I’m just saying it seems a bit odd how strongly people dismiss the idea)
