Ah! A subtle point. I'd think that it's a question of definitions at this point. If two systems are both <sufficiently unpredictable>, I would ascribe "free will" and "agency" to both. Your reasoning seems to be almost exactly the same and equally valid, except all the signs are flipped, so you ascribe those properties to neither. Either way the two systems are equivalent. |

Sometimes I like to frame it in the negative.
Because it rarely comes up as an option, that humans might not be 'conscious' either.
I don't mean in a solipsist way. More like in the 'controlled hallucination' framing from Anil Seth. We (human brains) respond to inputs, it is more of a Bayesian, math processing. We aren't really even aware of why we do things, we don't control what we think about. So are we really 'conscious'? And how can we say an AI wouldn't reach at least the same level of 'processing'.
