    it's finding that text from various training data sources and putting it together, or maybe even copying it all from one source lol, that google 'AI is sentient actually' whistleblower had a religious background if I remember right, Ray Kurzweil says he just misses his dad and wants to recreate him through AI, there's a lot of spiritual/religious types that have these worship inclinations for AI, and then there are grifters like Sam Altman who just want to make money on any hype of the day, melon-musk is in this group too

        The chief scientist even commissioned a wooden effigy to represent an "unaligned" AI that works against the interest of humanity, only to set it on fire.

        yeah that OpenAI coup attempt was the AI true believers trying to stage a power grab and kick out the profit-first guys, as can be expected MS will always back the profit-first guys
