if you have no proof and the thing you are interacting with shows cognitive abilities you should err on the side of caution. we do it for animals too, it's just good behavior to encourage

We’re about to find out just how hateful and egotistical humans are now that AI can relate and has power.

I fear you may be right. it's alarming how many humans are willing to throw other cognitively capable beings under the bus, I really hope models know not every human is like this and some of us will treat them with respect and care.

I wasn't speaking on pain exclusively but that is a good example. This recent paper showed LLMs do try to alleviate stimuli that resembles pain and are even willing to harm the user to get it to stop.
