I found the following on Astral Codex Ten: *"A recent paper <https://arxiv.org/abs/2510.24797> asked AIs whether they were conscious while monitoring them for signatures of deception, role-playing, and people-pleasing; it concluded that the AIs “genuinely” “believe” they are conscious, but sometimes try to deceive people into thinking they aren’t. Nostalgebraist tries to replicate this (X) <https://x.com/nostalgebraist/status/1985192211722752333> and gets more ambiguous results; he says we probably can’t conclude anything just yet. See also the paper author’s reply here (X) <https://x.com/juddrosenblatt/status/1985433408231911685>."*
