Orthodox and Catholic Christian theology of suffering is actually very logical. Just most people were not taught it unfortunately.

So let's acquire good karma by being nice to animals.

What does suffering or pain even mean for a purely analytical entity like an LLM? We can feel pain because we have a body, pain receptors, and parts of our brain dedicated to converting their signals to a subjective experience. What can an LLM "feel"? The words pain, happiness, sadness, suffering are all abstractions of real experiences that can not yet be encoded in a way that an LLM can use as input. All the LLM has are the abstractions.
