LLMs: AI Regulation Without the Human Mind? Maybe Not
There is a recent article in The Guardian, The EU is leading the way on AI laws. The US is still playing catch-up, where the authors stated that, "The European Union has been working on regulation around the issue for a while. In the United States, the regulatory process is just getting started. American lawmakers’ initial moves, several digital rights experts said, did not inspire much confidence.

Sentience: Has AI Punctured Human Intelligence, Consciousness?
There is a recent article, Unraveling the Mystery of Human Consciousness, where it was stated that, "Consciousness makes us capable of experiencing the scent of a rose, the touch of a breeze, the taste of food, the sound of music, and the sight of a sunrise. We also have a unique ability to be aware of our thoughts, emotions, memories, and even of our own awareness. Yet, despite the centrality of consciousness to our human experience, it remains shrouded in mystery. Science, as of today, has no definitive explanation of what consciousness is, how it occurs, or why it exists at all."

Neurobiology: The Sense of Self and the Left Brain
There is a recent article on Big Think, Eastern philosophy says there is no “self.” Science agrees, where the author stated that, "the great success story of neuroscience has been in mapping the brain. We can point to the language center, the face processing center, and the center for understanding the emotions of others. Practically every function of the mind has been mapped to the brain with one important exception: the self. Perhaps this is because these other functions are stable and consistent, whereas the story of the self is hopelessly inventive with far less stability than is assumed."
