Anthropomorphism is failing.

to introspect you have to have some human awareness. AI does not have any awareness.

Take The four (Human) stages of competence are:

Unconscious Incompetence – you don’t know what you don’t know Conscious Incompetence – you know what you don’t know Conscious Competence – you know that you can do it now Unconscious Competence – you can do it without thinking about it

The (AI) stage of competence will always be:

Anthropomorphism in AI: hype and fallacy

https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s43681-024-00419-4

Abstract

This essay focuses on anthropomorphism as both a form of hype and fallacy. As a form of hype, anthropomorphism is shown to exaggerate AI capabilities and performance by attributing human-like traits to systems that do not possess them.

As a fallacy, anthropomorphism is shown to distort moral judgments about AI, such as those concerning its moral character and status, as well as judgments of responsibility and trust. By focusing on these two dimensions of anthropomorphism in AI, the essay highlights negative ethical consequences of the phenomenon in this field.
