What is "fun"? Will be needing a serious definition for that word now. And I can already see some definitions being along the lines of "that which only humans and maybe some other biological organisms can experience" then going on to say how it's impossible for an LLM to have "fun".

  >maybe some other biological organisms can experience
  I don't think this even matters much in terms of moral patienthood. Many people might agree that cows can "feel pleasure" or "have fun", but yet they are slaughtered nonetheless. Dogs are only offered this not necessarily on account of their intelligence or the strength of their qualia but more because they're cute.

It's hard to know if it really had fun or not (it could have just confabulated its experience report), but I thought it was interesting.
