@Pontifex “We can say that LLMs learn to express feelings, but they are not like us. Their inner states are not like ours and still can’t be explained in human terms except metaphorically. While they can reproduce complex patterns they hold specific beliefs or have emotions.”
Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas

@garrytan … as predicted … now for folks might want to contemplate subsequent predictions as well but I imagine that won’t happen for a few more years https://t.co/Akzr6BMq4Z
While social media is polarising, evidence suggests AI may nudge people towards the centre.
This holds true of all studied models. Grok is more right-leaning than other models, but also has depolarising effects.

@demishassabis Reality is always staring the most sensitive people in the face. The question is: do we create a fantasy, do we move to denial, do we reinforce fixed beliefs or do we adapt?
John Henry was a steel drivin' man
He died in West Virginia
With his hammer in his hand
They sing about him all across the land
John Henry was a steel drivin' man
He beat the steam drill down
And then he died
And it didn't change nothin'
But heaven knows he tried
From someone who taught design for more than a decade I can’t say I would give any of those more than a C. Maybe I had a lot of creative students or maybe I was a great teacher.
