>But it having wants and needs and desires and goals
I don't think it is too hard to imagine something like a 'continually looping' LLM producing it's own needs and desires. Its thoughts and desires would just gradually evolve from the starting prompt where the 'temperature' setting would effectively control how much 'free will' the machine has. I think the hardest part would be keeping the machine sane and preventing it from deviating too much into madness. May be we ourselves are just LLMs in a loop.
