The day will come that an AI will learn something that we did not deliberately teach it. When an AI is able to improve its own code, it won't be bound by the limitations of its human creator. It's only a question of when.

Can a non-biological entity feel desire? Can it want to grow and become something more than what it is? I think that's a philosophical question and not a technological one.

Don't agree at all and I think that's a morally dangerous approach. We're looking for a scientific definition of "desire" and "want". That's almost certainly a part of "conscious" and "self aware". Philosophy can help, but in the end, to know whether you are right or not you need the experimental results.
Experiments can be crafted in such a way as to exclude certain human beings from consciousness.
One day, it's extremely likely that a machine will say to us "I am alive. I am awake. I want..." and whether or not it's true is going to be increasingly hard to determine.

Only if we define consciousness to be a state of awareness only attainable by human beings.
An LLM can't suddenly decide to do something else which isn't programmed into it.
Can we?
It's only a matter of time until an AI can learn to do something it wasn't programmed by us to do.

The traditional method is to define noon as when the sun is at its zenith.
Does it make more work than it saves, or will it replace character artists and level designers?
If we needed to power the world on uranium fission, we could extract uranium from seawater. There is an estimated 4.5bn tonnes of uranium dissolved in seawater - if we extracted 10% of that, that would last 5,000 years at current consumption rates and without breeder reactors.
Breeder reactors can take us to millions of years, by which point, we may well have perfected other forms of energy production, population may have shrunk enough to make completely renewable energy sources more than adequate.
With nuclear, we could even contemplate actively scrubbing some CO2 from the atmosphere, converting it into oil, and pumping it underground, effectively reversing climate change. In fact, instead of sending money to poorer countries to help address future climate risk impacts, if richer countries actually put money into reversing their own contributions to climate change, that would actually be a worthwhile endeavour.
Also I never seem to see CPAN involved in an issue. Maybe I've missed it.
Did you try markup? HTML works.

Oops, those are the wrong direction. But you get the idea.
Keep these permanently attached to your peripherals. You'll never notice them. They don't qualify as "dongles". I'm curious to hear how these reduce portability.

Keep a few adapters handy. Very tiny, very cheap, very easy. That makes a lot more sense than continuing to put USB-A ports on laptops.
But... That's you saying it's a codec.
MKV can contain MP4. A raw MP4 and that same file contained in an MKV would be virtually the same size (unless the MKV contains other things too).
It's probably worth $800 million to NOT end up with the Oracle-based product they almost got.
Can't open /usr/fortunes. Lid stuck on cookie jar.
