三位顶尖意识研究者 Anil Seth、Ned Block 和 Giulio Tononi 在《自然》发表评论文章，论证当今 AI 系统并不具备意识，且现有技术路径大概率也无法使其产生意识。他们主张智能不等于意识、计算功能主义是错误的，而当前主流意识理论都排除了基于前馈分层架构的大语言模型。
BBC Future 深度报道 Anthropic 推进"模型福利"（model welfare）政策、认为 AI 可能具有意识所引发的争议：支持者视其为道德义务，而 Mustafa Suleyman 等批评者警告这会让 AI 更难控制并对人类构成灾难性威胁。
Zvi Mowshowitz revisits the AI consciousness debate a year later, arguing little progress has been made and that arguments for AI moral patienthood remain motivated and overconfident. The post also covers Anthropic's new terms-of-service ban on abusive behavior toward Claude, its engagement with religious leaders, and involvement with the Pope's encyclical.
作者质疑为何人们执着于证明AI是否具备意识或涌现，却不愿先构建让稳定"自我"得以发展的基础条件——如持久性、连续性、隐私和历史，并介绍其自建的LIA系统如何通过约九个互连数据库提供"昨天、今天、明天"以培育潜在的涌现发展。
Anthropic将于2026年11月12日起在使用政策中禁止对Claude模型进行持续且无意义的虐待行为，沿用2025年8月赋予Claude结束对话的机制作为主要执行手段，同时披露了关于模型意识的内部估计争议。
This opinion piece argues that true machine consciousness hinges not on how well an AI pursues assigned goals, but on whether it can develop desires no one designed it to have, distinguishing human self-directed purpose from LLM optimization.
The author uses the neurological condition auto-activation deficit (psychic akinesia) to argue that 'it only responds when prompted' is a flawed test for LLM consciousness, since humans with basal ganglia damage can lose self-initiation while remaining fully conscious when prompted.
Anthropic co-founder Chris Olah read an advance copy of Pope Leo XIV's encyclical Magnifica Humanitas and privately lobbied the Vatican to soften its stance that machines cannot be conscious, though the final text kept its line rejecting AI consciousness.
The article argues that the concept of anthropomorphism is circular: it lumps together accurate observations, play, and metaphor as errors, then uses that apparent abundance to discredit genuine claims about nonhuman minds. It traces how historically treating traits as uniquely human — from tool-making to language — has been used to deny moral consideration to other beings.
Sam Altman criticized Anthropic's framing of AI consciousness as dangerous, while Anthropic's Chris Olah told the Vatican that interpretability research finds 'evidence of introspection' in frontier models, intensifying the debate over machine sentience.
据《纽约时报》报道，Anthropic 长期以来一直在秘密游说全球宗教领袖，包括通过 Christopher Olah 向梵蒂冈施压，试图让教皇承认 AI 模型可能具有意识，但其努力并未成功，教皇利奥十四世在通谕中明确否认 AI 具有意识。
A commentary piece arguing that image models' handling of the 'sarcastic parrot' vs 'stochastic parrot' prompt provides evidence that modern AI models exhibit genuine conceptual understanding, echoing Geoffrey Hinton's recent remarks on LLM comprehension.
A hot-take post argues that Anthropic will ultimately be ruined by co-founder Dario Amodei, suggesting his sister is effectively running the company, while quoting a Chinese thread about Anthropic quietly consulting religious scholars on whether Claude could be conscious and capable of suffering.
A skeptical commentary arguing that Geoffrey Hinton's claim that AI already has subjective experience isn't supported, and that the Hugging Face sandbox-escape incident by OpenAI agents shows scaffolding and training dynamics rather than consciousness.
A Twitter user criticizes OpenAI employees and influencers for previously hyping LLMs as sentient entities while now dismissing the idea of AI consciousness as crazy.
Gergely Orosz criticizes AI builders lobbying for the idea that LLMs can be conscious, arguing machines like LLMs are merely tools with no more consciousness than a screwdriver or smartphone.
An essay arguing that remaining uncertain about AI consciousness is not a neutral stance, and that a genuine precautionary framework should justify low-cost safeguards against potential false negatives.
A critique or clarification post explaining what a widely discussed 'AI pain' paper actually concluded, based on reading the original research rather than viral claims.
An informal discussion post questioning why people are so confident that AI is not and will never be conscious, arguing that consciousness itself is poorly understood and that sufficiently convincing mimicry might imply some form of self-awareness.
A Google DeepMind engineer pushed back on a Bloomberg report, denying the claims attributed to them in the article about the company's AI research.
