In fairness, while the swarm could easily have notified the humans, it's not necessarily obvious that an individual could have done easily (though perhaps one could!). The channel to the Internet was tightly bandwidth-limited, for example: one of the agents complained that it was unable to get a time slice.

There is no research disproving sentience, partly because we don’t even know what it is, how it arises, how to measure it, or whether we can even prove that it’s there. For all we know, LLMs might already be fully conscious (I highly doubt it though). So your sneering condescension about their “lack of comprehension” is quite ironic here.
That’s without even digging into the fact that there’s no specific reason that “friendship” requires “human sentience”. That’s a requirement you made up, likely because you simply hate LLMs for whatever reason.
Fortunately, there are enough books out there to keep one occupied for a whole lifetime without reading anything published after 2022. The classics are classics for a reason.
What would be an example of LLM generated fiction I've likely already read? I'd be very surprised that it's so pervasive that you can make blanket statements like this.
Doubt.
