That's not really an argument, is it? I do understand the maths behind these models, or at least a good chunk of it. I can talk about differentiable functions, softmax etc.
Regardless, going from "it involves maths" to "therefore there are no actual ethical issues" is a non-sequitur. Your conclusion doesn't follow from your premise. I actually agree with you - I don't think current transformer models like DALL-E are conscious or worthy of rights - but what you've presented here isn't something that could possibly convince anyone in either direction. You'd have to lay out why it's not and how many years of study of maths are involved really doesn't seem like a convincing basis on which to decide.
