I believe at least one attempt to put a serious definition to sapience defined it as a process in which a creature reacts not only to external input but also to internally generated input. Granted you can meet that definition by tacking a random number generator to the inner workings of any LLM.
Yeah, that’s just bullshit. It isn’t even logical coherent. If we are all just reacting, where is the input supposed to come from?
