• Will some AI systems be conscious in the near future?question0.858
  Key empirical question for the consciousness route.
• our analysis suggests that no current AI systems are conscious, but also suggests that there are no obvious technical barriers to building AI systems which satisfy these indicators.quote0.855
  Key takeaway from abstract, amended version.
• There is a realistic possibility that some AI systems will be conscious and/or robustly agentic, and thus morally significant, in the near future.claim0.854
  Central thesis of the report.
• No current AI systems are conscious.claim0.848
  Overall assessment of current state; qualified by possibility.
• AI systems which possess more of the indicator properties are more likely to be conscious.claim0.817
  Graded claim about the rubric.
• it is no longer in the realm of science fiction to imagine AI systems having feelings and even human-level consciousness.quote0.815
  From the AMCS open letter signed by consciousness scientists and AI researchers, quoted in §2.2.2.
• Recent AI advances are revolutionary but far from recapitulating human-like cognitive abilities or consciousness.claim0.813
• Satisfying the indicators would not mean that an AI system would definitely be conscious.claim0.810
  Caveat that indicators are not conclusive proof.
