We aren't trying to establish that neurons are conscious. The thought experiment presupposes that there is a consciousness, something capable of understanding, in the room. But there is no understanding because of the circumstances of the room. This demonstrates that the appearance of understanding cannot confirm the presence of understanding. The thought experiment can't be formulated without a prior concept of what it means for a human consciousness to understand something, so I'm not sure it makes sense to say a human mind "is a Chinese room." Anyway, the fact that a human mind can understand anything is established by completely different lines of thought.

This fails to engage with the thought experiment. The question isn't if "the room is fluent in Chinese." It is whether the machine learning model is actually comparable to the person in the room, executing program instructions to turn input into output without ever understanding anything about the input or output.

You can get blight free versions of JavaScript too, if you use TypeScript.

In a hypothetical and highly unlikely world where everyone had to pay Oracle to use Java, everyone would switch to something else. It would be guaranteed suicide. Anyway, in that world, they would need to both make this ridiculous decision and win an unwinnable legal battle afterwards. It's not a realistic concern.

What's the lockin? Is it really harder than just swapping the jdk path to switch between Coretto and OpenJDK? I understand Coretto being preferable for performance and security patches but I don't imagine it's that big of a deal if one eventually had to switch
