Should be fairly easy to tell if/when this happens, or at least if there is serious debate around whether it has happened.

Sort by:

I would say the % likelihood as judged by most researchers is much higher than it was when I drafted this question but definitely nowhere near 80%

If this were for 2030, I'd guess about 40% chance. For 2035, about 90% chance. For end of 2024? That's mighty soon. I think I'm at about 2% chance.... My probability goes up significantly in 2025-2026.

Judged by whom?

@IsaacKing Judged by the mainstream AI/ML research + philosophy + neuroscience communities.

@MagnusHambleton "Mainstream" makes this zero chance.

By 2025, we will have made an artificial system that is judged with high likelihood (>80%) to have some sort of conscious experience, 8k, beautiful, illustration, trending on art station, picture of the day, epic composition
