And I don't see how a question like that could help you figure out the nature of an AI's mind, or any mine for that matter, even if the AI was ordered to tell the truth. The position of a mind in 3D space is a nebulous concept; if your brain is in one place and your sense organs are in another place, and you're thinking about yet another place, then where exactly is the position of your mind? I think it's a nonsense question because "you" should not be thought of as a pronoun but as an adjective. You are the way atoms behave when they are organized in a Brentmeekerian way. So asking a question like that is like asking where is "big" located or the color yellow.
