Text prediction != Intelligence
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_room
Does it need to be real intelligence in order to have a conversation with it?
Behold, AI!
Nobody has said that an LLM is real artificial intelligence.
I love how much you're walking back your own statements. Lmao
You just inflated my initial statement by assuming I meant that Chatgpt is smarter than humans. I said that Chatgpt is more advanced than the average human at linguistics, and I stand by it. Show me where I said "Chatgpt is smarter than a human" or "this is real simulated human intelligence". You just wanted to be angry at someone so you made your narrative in your mind.
I even said that it doesn't need to be real intelligence in order to be capable of having a conversation.
You'll probably keep creating your imaginary narrative, so there's no point in arguing with you.
Good bye.
You, sir, are an idiot.
I don't care what you think
Attitude doesn't have anything to do with fact.
Personal attacks and insults, what a disgusting person.
Facts are not personal attacks.
What fact?
Oh, now you can't read too? Ok.
You haven't said a single fact. All you do is assume things and insult people who don't agree with you.
Never understood this argument. It has nice rethorics but proves nothing. the problem with text prediction != intelligence is that we can't even define intelligence. I hate AI as much as the next guy here, but that doesn't mean we should do lazy assertions and quoting dumb arguments.
You're not wrong that we don't have great definitions of intelligence, but that doesn't detract at all from criticism against these LLM's being pushed on us and the massive amount of praise and hype being directed at what's essentially advertising platforms.
All you need to understand is that AI models are making the internet a lot worse, and it's going to get worse and worse and people are not happy about it. The exact details and semantics about the wording is almost irrelevant in the face of our need to collectively demand better from our tech companies and not act like these LLM's are real entities that deserve respect.
