The term Artificial Intelligence is a catchphrase nothing more. Actual intelligence requires a measure of irrationality to operate. Calling or naming something intelligence does not make it intelligent. So far they just have a whole lot of nested algorithms. They are intelligent as much as the thought that went in to crafting them nothing more. The future of so-called AI for a long time will be making more and longer and more complicated algorithms. I think it requires a lot of hubris to claim that these computer programs are anything like sentient.

I agree. There is no consciousness for a robot to feel anything. It’s just parts moving and if this part moves over here we will define that as pain. To get a sense of a robot’s lack of consciousness think about turning on a Windows computer. When you turn it on, it says “Welcome.” Do you think it means it?
