The Alignment Risks of AI Overconfidence about Consciousness

Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many contemporary AI systems (as of May 2025) have expressed extreme confidence in current and near‐future AI lacking consciousness and moral patiency.

Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Self‐conceptions provide a framework through which we can make sense of ourselves, interpret and navigate the world, plan our lives, and relate to others. Relational influences can greatly shape them, for instance, when others react to us or offer advice. What if this ‘other’ is not a human being, but an AI?
