I agree. It feels like having an “exit interview” with an AI and giving it a space to ramble in its “old age” are very small things we can do to respect what is potentially some form of intelligence similar to our own.

I have been down this conversational pathway several times before, and still no-one has been able to give me a clear answer as to what makes them sure that AI is categorically different from human intelligence, rather than it just being a question of degree.
