      Nobody thinks they are the same, some wonder if it can be made to do equivalent things. Nobody needs to hear that what they are doing isn’t thought for the same reason nobody needs to hear that my computer isn’t actually thinking when it’s running slow.

        I don’t think this is true. People are out here having straight up AI psychosis. Do you really think there aren’t fools who believe their computer is actually thinking like a human?

          I don’t think a single one of them believe that pattern prediction vs a human brain is meaningfully distinct, so this argument is worthless to them, it’d be like saying “nuh uh”, you’re not engaging with their beliefs, so, how would this help?
