It's not going to be a meaningful philosophical discussion if you simply put out an assertion without backing or an actual explanation. That's just arguing via assertions.

The only assertion I made was the definition of sentience. And the best conversations are arguments.

Definition of consciousness ^ I meant

I don't see how that makes the assertion I mentioned any more true. It doesn't seem to be supported by much of anything.

How else does one feel?

Let me repeat my reply in a different way:

See what you said below. How is that supported by anything else you've said?

>Theoretically, you could just plug ChatGPT (or any other deep learningmodel) to an artificial nervous system and it would be (technically)sentient.

And I answered "how else does one feel?"

How one "feel" has nothing to do with ChatGPT.
