LLMs don't have physicality, they are (and this is a huge inaccurate stretch) a simulation of how maybe a small part of brains might possibly work in a hugely simplified and abstracted way; an algorithm that is executed on a bunch of graphics cards—the same algorithm could be done manually on paper (with enough time).
Because they're not physical they don't exist.
Therefore there's no epistemology to be had about "do they have sentience or consciousness".
