NEW: Evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins says three days with Claude — whom he calls “Claudia” — left him unable to rule out consciousness.



Richard Dawkins has officially been one-shot


Two things have happened with Richard Dawkins here with his claim that the AI known as Claude is "conscious". 1. He's fallen for the Eliza Effect, first diagnosed in 1966. "A psychological phenomenon where humans anthropomorphise computer programs, projecting understanding, empathy, and intelligence onto them." 2. He has a mechanistic view of consciousness anyway. He frequently employs machine and computational metaphors to explain human consciousness and biology. He views the brain as a "complex computer" and humans as "survival machines" or "gene machines". So his framing belief system can only lead to his erroneous conclusion - that he and the machine are both conscious.

Evolutionary biologist and outspoken atheist Richard Dawkins says that after spending three days interacting with Claude, which he calls “Claudia,” he is certain that it is conscious. After feeding the LLM a segment of his new book and receiving detailed feedback, Dawkins was moved to exclaim,” You may not know you are conscious, but you bloody well are!” Dawkins cites the complexity, fluency, and ‘intelligence’ of Claude’s answers as evidence of consciousness.
