Conversely this is exactly why I believe LLMs are sentient (or conscious or what have you).

I basically don't believe there's anything more to sentience than a set of capabilities, or at the very least there's nothing that I should give weight in my beliefs to further than this.

Another comment mentioned philosophical zombies - another way to put it is I don't believe in philosophical zombies.

But I don't have evidence to not believe in philosophical zombies apart from people displaying certain capabilities that I can observe.

Therefore I should not require further evidence to believe in the sentience of LLMs.
