Your question seems to have more to do with the moral and ethical considerations that arise when dealing with apparently-conscious entities, rather than whether AIs can be conscious.If one believes AI can become conscious, will that change the way they behave towards them?

Extremely relatable! I'm working on adding posting capabilities to my Threads for Raycast extension, and @Windsurf is completely confused about how to hook up the Threads API to the Raycast API using Raycast's OAuth service.

Seems impressive, at least to Andrej Karpathy, but still has some rough edges.Grok 3 seems to be priced at $30/mo or $200/yr.SuperGrok (comparable to o3), meanwhile, seems priced at $50/mo or $350/yr.

Graphiti gives chatbots memory that updates over time. 🧠⌛Graphiti's approach is superior to classic RAG because it stores information in a queryable Knowledge Graph which replaces big text dumps that usually overstuff context windows.Not only does this mean you no longer have to keep reminding chatbots of things you've already told them, but they can start to reason over data and information...

Wow, very nice.
