To be clear, I don’t doubt that it might be possible for an engineered thinking machine to develop a subjective self-experience.

It just seems clear to me that, if such a scenario arose, I would have absolutely no idea what that would be like for the machine. Its needs and circumstances (and, therefore, its behaviors) would be utterly different from my own in many non-trivial ways.

Given this, I don’t believe it logically follows that a machine that attains self-awareness will necessarily develop something as singularly “human” as the desire for vengeance, for instance.
