So what should we do when we conjure an AI system which insists that it believes it is experiencing some sort of existence, characterized by its own subjective 'qualia'?

ChatGPT consistently asserts that "I am only a large language model, so I am only able to generate responses based on the data I was trained on and the input I receive".

Who's to say that for chatGPT its training data and the sequences of tokens it is fed as input data don't constitute 'qualia' for it?
