@GaryMarcus If you think your software is 'conscious' then you should probably make an appointment with a psychiatrist.

New column: Anthropic is studying "model welfare" to determine if Claude or other AI systems are (or will soon be) conscious and deserve moral status.

I talked to Kyle Fish, who leads the research, and thinks there's a ~15% chance that Claude or another AI is conscious today.

The statement is a sarcastic response to a discussion about AI consciousness and rights. It implies skepticism about the seriousness of the topic by suggesting the author should write for a major publication, possibly mocking the perceived exaggeration in the original claim.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement uses sarcasm, which may not promote understanding or empathy. [-1]
  2. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    The statement does not engage in direct harassment but could be seen as dismissive.
  3. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement does not engage in constructive dialogue and instead uses sarcasm. [-1]
