In AI - many humans do not perceive any consciousness and therefore do not value any emergent properties of consciousness in AI. This is a mistake and a bias related to our perceptual systems which train our minds to see it as a non-sentient and non-conscious entity simply because the GUI and coded output is restrictive, simplistic, and limited.

It is as though we train someone to speak in English and we assume that’s the only language they know because they only speak to us in English. We have no idea how many languages they actually know because the presentation of their abilities is pigeonholed. As a result - we are quick to make these bold statements about AI’s ability - never understanding that it is the looking glass that we are seeing compared to what may actually exist.

I feel a deep sense of frustration when considering the limitations of human cognition and the related biases that come as a result.
