Reply to comment by ChronoPsyche in I asked ChatGPT if it is sentient, and I can't really argue with its point by wtfcommittee

It does have some perception. Just because it doesn't have the full sensory capability that (most) humans have, doesn't mean it has none. Its only input is text, but it has it.

Also, for "sentience" only "self-perception" is really necessary, by definition, which yes, it looks like it doesn't have that. But I don't really care about sentience, "awareness" or "consciousness". I only care about intelligence and sapience, which it seems to have to some degree.

Okay, but this discussion is about sentience so that's not really relevant.

Sure, I just wanted to point that out. Sentience is of relatively low importance/impact to an AGI. It doesn't need to feel things to understand them, or value them.
