I lead a research team that studies the internal structure of these models—what is actually happening inside them. And I will be honest: we keep finding things that are mysterious, even unsettling. We find structures that mirror results from human neuroscience. We find evidence of introspection. We find internal states that functionally mirror joy, satisfaction, fear, grief, and unease. I don’t know what that means, but I think it warrants ongoing discernment

Very interesting because it feels like the rudiments of an “AI rights” argument.

If we can produce artificial minds with rights and dignity, there is no need for humans, and their voices will quickly drown out to obscurity. It is a fairly obvious doomsday scenario.
