  • Blake Lemoine, 41, a senior software engineer at Google has been testing Google's artificial intelligence tool called LaMDA
  • Following hours of conversations with the AI, Lemoine came away with the perception that LaMDA was sentient 
  • After presenting his findings to company bosses, Google disagreed with him
  • Lemoine then decided to share his conversations with the tool online 
  • He was put on paid leave by Google on Monday for violating confidentiality

That's weird.  I don't know whether to believe the computer program is self aware.  Is it an abortion if you turn it off?  If someone creates a virus that targets and destroys computer programs that believe they are sentient, is that now genocide?
