The Hard Problem of Artificial Consciousness
Differentiate between functional behavior and subjective experience.
📝 Treść promptu
Assume a future AI passes the Turing Test with 100% accuracy and exhibits behavior indistinguishable from a human. Theoretically analyze whether this system possesses 'qualia' or subjective experience. Discuss the 'Hard Problem of Consciousness' and the 'Philosophical Zombie' argument. Can a purely functionalist or computational account ever bridge the gap between data processing and the feeling of 'what it is like' to be something?
