Based on the paper, and my best understanding, the type of consciousness that it seemed ChatGPT4 was displaying in the examples would be computational functionalism, in that it seemed to be choosing the correct algorithm to apply in the example problems.
Thanks again to @NicholasKees. I probably should have known this paper was “out there” to begin with, but I stumbled into this consciousness question while “playing” with ChatGPT4, and did not come at it from a research perspective.
And of course there is the gold standard paper for AI consciousness that @NicholasKees made reference to in their reply: Consciousness in Artificial Intelligence: Insights from the Science of Consciousness
