I would believe the computer, not because of accepting computationalism, but because when I imagine the situation happening in real life, I cannot imagine continuing to say to someone or something, “Actually, I’m not sure you’re really conscious,” when it acts like it is in every way.
I actually think the same thing is likely to happen to almost everyone (that is, in the end accepting that it is conscious), regardless of their previous philosophical views.
Right. I’ve said before that we don’t need the experiment. We already know people will let out an AI that seems decent and undeserving of being in a box.

Yeah, that’s how Justin Corwin won twenty AI-box experiments.
