this will not be the last time someone will make this claim. it is telling that the experts all weighed in declaring it not sentient without explaining what such a metric is. I think this debate an issue of semantics and is clouded by our own sense of importance. in car driving, they came up with a scale 1-5 to describe autonomous capabilities, perhaps they need to have something similar for the capabilities of chatbots. as a system administrator I have always acknowledged that computers have feelings. I get alerts whenever it feels pain.
