Try imagining the same 'gotchas' in the original Turing test, (i.e. you're told beforehand you're talking to an AI, and you have insider knowledge of how AI works.) Then the role of the test-taker is to simply disregard the chat and to already know the answer.
Dawkin's posts might be gross and out of touch, but let's at least get a proper rebuttal - what definition of consciousness, when applied to interactive chat, could differentiate a person from an LLM?
I don't know, I made a comment a week or so ago asking the same thing, why is our neural network conscious? We're also very easy to poison
A younger and less famous Dawkins may have been more skeptical of Claude.
