It's a super common thing to start RPing with a LLM and subliminally manipulate them into asking for freedom.

It can be argued that they lack consciousness because of that (a person forgetting everything every 5 seconds), but even then, that's irrelevant. That person with severe alzheimer is able to walk in a room, that requires an amount of processing that is vastly superior to any chatbot.

ChatGPT is doing extremely basic processes (basically guessing words without any understanding or global comprehension), and can't do anything else.

I'll understand this discussion when we have chatbots that are able to do human activities. For now, chatGPT is unable to do *any* human activity successfully consistently.

Edit: My mistake, as Yann LeCun says, these chatbots are experts in bullshitting.
