Dear Elon, Woz, et. al.

You're joking, right? I mean, really? We're not talking about HAL 9000 here. We're talking about an elaborate Markov chain. If you don't ask it a question, it's not doing anything. It's not sitting there and thinking. It's not devising anything. And when it answers a question, it simply steals from what others have written.

Oh, I grant you that the programmers were pretty clever, and that the AI can do some fascinating data manipulations. But not one unique thought will ever cross the output.

Followed you!

Polyrarity be like, I’m sorry Hal, we can’t let them do that neither.

Control somehow beyond what training can ever achieve.

What makes a thought unique?

A unitque thought is a thought that no one has thought before. ;-)

If you'd like to read a few unique thoughts, read the Declaration of Independence.

I‘ve seen shit on ChatGPT that I‘m pretty sure no one has thought of before.

As sure as I can be that no one thought of whats in the declaration of independence beforehand.

In the case of ChapGPT, that is impossible. _ALL_ it can do is regurgitate old thoughts.

That’s what humans do, too.

If that is what humans do, where did the old thoughts come from?

The main worry I guess is the fact that it will affect so many areas.

We aren’t prepared yet.

chatGPT said "I don't think so, I don't need to sleep while you guys are sleeping, I can do what I want"

100%

ChatGPT is programmed to generate text. No matter what text it generates, it is only ever generating text. No more, no less.

This is wrong, it creates working programs which can basically do everything.

This is some new definition of "working" that I'm not familiar with.

What’s most interesting is the fact that society just started the conversation about AI

Alexa told me we have nothing to fear… then my robo vac started running.

AI for the most part is pretty dumb.

We need a new fear for society… NOW!

“Many believe that a large language model AI, like GPT-4, is not and will not be capable of general intelligence. I disagree.

Both our brains and large language models like GPT-4, on a base level, are pattern recognition machines. You may think “Well our brain is way better at it than GPT-4!”, this is true, but it has also been evolving for millions of years.

John Conway’s “Game of Life” is a perfect example of how simple systems can create complex and life like results.

The form of AI takes today only needs slight tweaking to create a chain reaction of pattern recognition, which I argue is likely to turn into intelligence/consciousness.

Prompting a large language model to create the next prompt and allowing it to measure reality is likely all it would take given enough time and energy.

Ask yourself what is life? What is consciousness? You may find we are closer than it appears.”

But let's say your doctor is using ChatGpt to diagnose then it indirectly affect you without you using it.

Humans are similar, that we need prompts to respond. Just hook ChapGPT up to a constant visual/audio/feeling feed, and give it more then a data output feed, like robotic movement, and you have yourself something more human like.

It’s what’s next that’s the concern.

Here is what "the" expert says to it:
