I'm not talking about sentience per se, but how any "AI" would think, lookups (LLMs), vs synthesized on-the-fly thinking (mimicing the human brain's procesing).

Hrmm. I guess i don't believe the idea that you can make a game that really connects on an empathic, emotional level without having those experiences as the author. Anything short and you're just copying the motions of sentiment, which brings us back to the same plagerism problem with LLMs and othrr "AI" models. It's fine for CoD 57, but for it to have new ideas we need to give it one because it is definitionally not creative. Even hallucinations are just bad calculations on the source. Though they could insire someone to have a new idea, which i might argue is their only artistic purpose beyond simple tooling.

I thoroughly believe machines should be doing labor to improve the human conditon so we can make art. Even making a "fun" game requires an understanding of experience. A simulacrum is the opposite, soulless at best. (In the artistic sense)

If you did consider a sentient machine, my ethics would then develop an imperative to treat it as such. I'll take a sledge hammer to a printer, but I'm going to show an animal care and respect.
