Being able to play music doesn’t imply consciousness. It implies intelligence. We’ve had player pianos for ages. It’s an ability, not a phenomenology.

Being able to appreciate and enjoy music is closer to consciousness. Now how would we go about proving that an LLM does so, versus merely generating sentences that imply it does?

how can you prove that a human is appreciating and enjoying music instead of just generating sentences that imply they do?

[Jensson]

They put in effort and resources to experience music and don't just say they enjoy it, and they generate noises and movements that signal happy feelings.

LLM doesn't have any signals for what they feel, nor do they have an agenda they work towards, so you don't have the same proof there.
