LLMs are clearly a type of lower level intelligence. Intelligence does not require consciousness.

The only thing that I would say is "clear" is that LLMs are big collections of statistical data on how we use language. That does not cross my threshold for "intelligence".

You have your own individual threshold for what "is" intelligence? Holy cow, imagine if each other agent had their own also, but spoke as if they had a common one...that sure wouldn't be a very intelligent way to run a simulation, imagine the unrealized confusion and delusion that could result if that became a cultural convention!

That’s quite a lot of metaphysical speculation for a conclusion that is all but clear.
