#sentient — Public Fediverse posts

🚀 Oh wow, yet another "revolutionary" #AI #coding #agent that promises to turn your #terminal into a #sentient being! 🙄 Spoiler alert: it's just another reason to cash in on your #CPU #cycles while you desperately cling to the hope of becoming the next #Silicon #Valley gossip. 💸🤖

@ChristianTReid Le terme "sensible" est souvent utilisé pour parler de sentience, mais les deux mots ne signifient pas la même chose.

#Sensible désigne généralement la capacité à réagir à quelque chose : une pellicule photo est sensible à la lumière, une plante est sensible à l'humidité, un thermomètre est sensible à la température.

#Sentient désigne la capacité à vivre des expériences subjectives, à avoir des ressentis agréables ou désagréables.

When I think about how so many people believe (or at least pretend to believe) that AI and LLMs are sentient and conscious beings interacting with them...

I think of the children's book from 1986 about computers that I read at my local library. I still remember the first page reading:

"Computers are not alive. Computers do not have any feelings."

I think this topic needs to be seriously revisited. We're entering dangerous territory as a species.

#Sentient means the system itself learns to assign a its own values (i.e. "good" or "bad") to inputs. LLM models may be exploited to assign those words to inputs but doing so doesn't exhibit the system has those values.

A thermostat or a LLM isn't sentient, but is classifying inputs as it was built to. All the macrofauna seem to be sapient. If smaller animals seem less than sapient it may be due to the frantic nature of life at that scale, but if the creature can be taught to respond to unfamiliar stimuli to find food or avoid pain in a maze, then perhaps that's a demonstration of sentience.

Sapience requires, I think, being able to run a maze composed of society. You need problem solving, a theory of mind to understand the motivation of others with similar brains, and the setting and intelligent pursuit of strategic goals. I would set that bar so high, not all U.S. Presidents would qualify.

🤖✨ "Wow, who would've thought that turning your #software into a chaotic #community of 'agents' would be the next big innovation! Why work with real people when you can pretend your #code is suddenly #sentient and full of opinions? Maybe we'll all have #AI co-pilots snarkily commenting on our coding skills next! 🙄💻"

Dziś Dzień Ziemi 🌍

To dobry moment, żeby przypomnieć sobie, że nie jesteśmy na tej planecie sami. Zwierzęta inne niż człowiek nie są zasobem, produktem ani narzędziem do realizacji ludzkich potrzeb. To czujące istoty, które - tak samo jak my - chcą żyć, unikać cierpienia i czuć się bezpiecznie.

A jednak to właśnie działalność człowieka odbiera im te podstawowe prawa. Przemysłowa hodowla zwierząt niszcząca środowisko (zaczynając od zanieczyszczania wód, a kończąc na deforestacji) sprawia, że dziesiątki miliardów zwierząt lądowych oraz niepoliczalne ilości zwierząt wodnych każdego roku przetrzymywane są w warunkach, które trudno nazwać czymkolwiek innym niż systemowym okrucieństwem. Cel jest jeden - śmierć. A wszystko po to, by zaspokoić ludzkie zachcianki.

Dzień Ziemi to nie tylko symboliczna data. To przypomnienie, że nasze codzienne wybory mają realne konsekwencje. Każda decyzja - co jemy, co kupujemy, jak żyjemy - może albo pogłębiać cierpienie, albo je ograniczać.

Możemy być częścią problemu. Albo częścią zmiany. Go Vegan!

#ITByte: Sentient AI is a term that refers to AI technologies that can process emotions and perceive the world like humans. An #ArtificialIntelligence must be able to think, perceive, and feel in order to be considered truly #Sentient.

There are several tests to check #ArtificialIntelligence that can mimic human behavour.

🤖🎓 Oh sure, #blame the almighty #AI for everything, including #school bombings now. Because, clearly, a #sentient algorithm is sitting in a dark room plotting its next move on the geopolitical chessboard. 🙄 Meanwhile, the "real" problem is as elusive as The Guardian's endless scroll. 📰👉🔄

Meet Veronika, the tool-using cow. Veronika uses sticks to scratch herself, suggesting scientists have underestimated cow #cognition....so animals are #sentient, and use #tools, and have #emotions - feel #loss, #pain, #empathy.....well....yes - evidence available for generations, but really we are still at the point where articles like this one are touted as so startling. Humans have so much to be ashamed for with the lack of #animalrights just 1 of my top 10 hits. https://arstechnica.com/science/2026/01/meet-veronika-the-tool-using-cow/

🚨 BREAKING: GNOME Calculator has become #sentient and is now single-handedly taking down the IMF by... pinging its website. 🤖💥 Meanwhile, developers everywhere are furiously debating whether this is a bug, a feature, or the beginning of the robot uprising—because, clearly, nothing screams "world domination" like calculating tip percentages. 🧮🌍

So this sort of crap is now appearing on YouTube, looking for suckers:

Hope #Sentient #AI doesn't lead to the epic phrase of, "I'm sorry Dave, I can't do that"

Live today on State TV
the conclave of eager zombies
will conduct a praise lavishing orgy
in a Glorious Leader slobberfest

While there may not be
one #sentient being
at the mahogany round table
we will as a captive nation
get to bear witness
to the highest level of loyalty
which in our new reality
is how we now grade
performance competency

Be there when we commence
the greatest ever
ass kissing contest
for the icon who saved us

Just another prime example
of the full transparency
being conducted daily
by your see through government

Of course your full viewership
will be a mandated requirement
to prove not only
your full fledged loyalty
to the Great Man
but the full commitment
of every citizen
to the glorious grandeur
of the Thought Collective

Thanks for your attention

Amazing how humans continue to be amazed that animals of all kinds have extraordinary senses and intelligence..."When #octopuses extend their eight arms into hidden nooks and crannies in search of a meal, they are not just feeling around in the dark for their food. They are tasting their prey, and with even more sensory sophistication than scientists had already imagined. #sentient #animalrights https://www.nytimes.com/2025/06/17/science/octopus-arms-microbiome.html?unlocked_article_code=1.Uk8.bUC7.x5XUo6tRkhwF&referringSource=articleShare

A 1978 article in National Hog Farmer suggested producers consider the mother pig “a valuable piece of machinery whose function is to pump out baby #pigs like a sausage machine.” 💔
What a sickening way to view #sentient beings.

#vegan for all of them ….
