>Would sentient AI be considered aliens?
No aliens means extra terrestrial, as in not from earth.
If humans build an AI it will be from earth.

dead matter is ultimately inferior to living matter
living matter is constantly changing, which is a requirement for adaptability in this chaotic world

until synthetic matter can change like organic matter, ie be a stable non-equilibrium system - any synthetic organism will be ultimately inferior

which I have my doubts can be made considering thermodynamic limitations, and even if it can, could be that much superior in design than what nature itself produced and honed for millions of years

I suspect that any fundamental limitations in living organisms that there are - are a consequence of our universe itself and laws that govern it

*change like living matter

That's what some one on pleroma said, but, I would think it kind of does though. Like just because its life on this earth it still kind of proof life other than humans can exist. I mean shit, technically other animals prove that.

Are we going to die?

This is dumb reasoning. You're just trying to mystify AI just because it's "le robot"

No

Define sentient, because aren't we close to having that? If AI can combine training and inference, and learn from it's interactions and run in a loop, what would that be?

But no not aliens, aliens have to come from a planet other than earth. Realistically one of the other planets in our solar system might have the alien equivalent of bacterial.

That would actually be mind blowing.

At first I thought that's boring since I would expect it to be something like on earth, but there's no way it didn't evolve in a weird way that for sure would be interesting to read about.

It would be the closest thing we have to one.
It being born on earth though disqualifies it by the strictest metrics. Humans and everything on earth including AI would be considered Terran.

i wish AI research wasnt so steered by the llm mafia
AI is an opportunity for humanity to confront an inhuman intelligence and instead weve squandered it by melting everything into PR
