Ask HN: Any philosophical books that discuss Consciousness related with LLMs era

Hacker News - Fri, 06/05/2026 - 9:03am

Following the article from Ted Chiang from TheAtlantic - Artificial intelligence is not conscious, I was wondering if you could suggest me some philosophical books that treat the subject of language, what is consciousness and ideally has some link to what we face today with LLms.

These philosphical books could be hundreds of years old but still be on-point with the current discussion, as I'm more interested to think about the philosophical aspect ("what is consciousness") rather than a deep discussion about what an LLM is (which is, in my view, too soon to be able to grasp in its entirety).

Thank you in advance.
