> Is chatGPT a mathematical model of consciousness?
Unless we reduce models of consciousness to purely stochastic processes, this is trivially false. And no one seriously reduces consciousness to probabilistic pattern recognition.
> We know it doesn't represent the whole experience...
It doesn't represent any experience. ChatGPT doesn't "experience" things as conscious things do. It's not even comparable to the experience of a simple invertebrate, for example.
