Gentleman Baller posted:One thing I've been doing with Bing's AI lately, is thinking of new puns and seeing if it can work out the theme and generate more puns that fit the theme, and it does it extremely well, I think. I mean I agree, at least to a degree. Does it "know" what a "horse" is? All it has are these weighted associations, but I would bet you could ask it almost any question about a horse, both things that are explicitly in the training data (how many legs does a horse have?) and things that aren't (could a horse drive a car) and get coherent, accurate answers. So I'd say it has an internal model of what a horse is, semantically. I don't think that means it has subjective experience or anything, just that yeah, it seems pretty reasonable to say it knows what a horse is.

Gumball Gumption posted:In that example it's more fair to say it knows that when text describes a horse it describes it with 4 legs so if you ask it how many legs a horse has it's response will be 4 because that's the common response and it wants to give you a response that looks correct. Yeah but it also knows you can't build a real horse out of cabbage (but you can build a statue of one), that horses can't drive because they aren't smart enough and don't have hands, and so on. All this stuff may just be weighted values in a huge matrix or whatever, but it can build associations that are vastly more extensive and subtler than words just tending to appear near other words in the training data. You edited your response a bit. So just to expand: I'd say it does "know" what a horse is, but that's for some definition of "know." It doesn't have any kind of audio or visual model for a horse (although it probably will soon, so it's kind of a moot point). And of course it doesn't have any personal, subjective associations with a horse in the way that a human does. But as a matter of language, I'd say yeah, it can deploy "horse" correctly, and "knows" just about all the facts about horses there are, and how those facts inter-relate to other facts about the world in a comprehensive way that, to my mind, meets a lot of the criteria for "knowing" something. porfiria fucked around with this message at 01:01 on Mar 28, 2023 |

I think the thinking among economists is that if technology reduces the amount of labor input for each unit of production, the cost and therefore unit price falls, which stimulates demand, which causes more people to get employed. This makes some sense but I have doubts it holds in all cases, particularly when the amount of human labor becomes extremely small.

Lol at the AI dorks turning concept artists into the next displaced cohort with nowhere to shelter but right wing corporatism.
