Bcachefs creator insists his custom LLM is female and 'fully conscious'

: It's not chatbot psychosis, it's 'math and engineering and neuroscience'

It may be math, and engineering, but it’s definitely not neuroscience.

Ever since Jaak Panksepp founded the field of Affective Neuroscience we know better. Once you understand that consciousness is a lot more than just activity in the brain’s cortex, all those ideas of LLMs being conscious are simply ridiculous.

Once you know it’s a rope, you can’t be fooled into believing it’s a snake.
