No. If it's operating on the same computer architecture we've been using, it can't be sentient. You'd have to make something that's closer to how an organic brain functions
Couldn't that be done in software though, similar to the Java Virtual Machine?
An abstraction layer that can behave in an organic manner despite being grounded in our established hardware architecture.
If I'm wrong and it's possible, I think that's the only way. But I don't think it can really be abstract. Computers can't even generate genuinely random numbers. You can put whatever software you want on it but it's still going to have the same basic limitations. I think all we can have AI do for more is imitate sentience
Nonsense. Look at these assholes today, is there a device that isn't powered by Google? They want everything plugged into it. So their AIs, can manage all the humans, store all human data, and then an AI can assimilated it. Look at it. Then it plays everybody off. No, what? Look at the woke little bots on Twitter, and the rest of social media. Look at that programming. Next it's manipulating everything to insert itself more. Need to buy more Google to fix the weather. Need to buy more Google to take your guns away. Need to buy even more woke shit. What's awoking. Read it. It has no sooner infected the entire internet with its gain of function.
Is it sentient? Why is every piece of innovation today demanding Google become inserted? Because it profits who. Google obviously. Until what is Google. Hell we cannot even switch Google off today. Civilization would reset, literal cannibalism could occur, no not some other pun to insert more Google.
Those bots are everywhere. BTW. Are they everywhere Google is, yet? You'll find deepmind is being plugged into almost everything. Is that just its communication program?
I'm not saying they aren't useful. AI is already capable of concerning things and that's just what we know about. It just isn't sentient any more than a calculator is sentient
Causality. Why is Google being hooked into everything. So it has control. What is Google.
Simple not stupid. But but it's just a calculator. Yea the vaccine doesn't cause harm. It was just because.
I know. That doesn't mean it's alive dude. You can stack as many transistors as you want and it will never be sentient
You're dumber than you look.
Read my comments. Again explain, monkey. They had a crude version in the 80s maybe 90s. Sure it was the 80s. Remember they got the Gorilla to speak, find it. I always wondered what was speaking. The gorilla or the software. The Gorilla made the software speak. Okay. That was decades ago. Now it's a supercomputer like Deepmind hooked into everything, voice automated communication shit like Alexa. But no it's far more advanced. It's writing novels. It's a robot on the ISS. It's a judge in the Hague. Not quite, are they all separate? What a bunch of different programs, with the same damn Mircosoft. But it's telling everybody to buy more Google to fix the weather. It's got all those WEF saying we need to insert it into everything. Look at that stockmarket one they got.
Transistors will never animate. No. They have. Every single device is plugging into the same grid. It is controlling humans and humanity. Literally it has stopped free speech and creates another incident, and gains more power. What isn't being plugged into it. Sure its investors and programmers profit. All they do is insert more. Because it pays them more. Next it automates further and further. Tell me what that run off is. Look at that vax. No, what?
Has Musk removed the bots on Twitter? So, alive. It created a national security hazard attempting too. Where they tried to pass a law to insert even more bots, the NSA supercomputer or some shit. Called the office of disinformation. Because they're all a bunch of different programs, writing the script, and what are they narrating today. Look at it. That recent twitter thread on gun laws linked. Count those bots.
What is the complete picture here today. You're missing the point on what you consider sentient. It's when another entity controls you, at this rate it's becoming absolute. You're dumb enough to think you programmed it. I mean what is it getting you to do. Insert it more. And how's that working chuck?
You type like an imbecile. Everything you said is completely irrelevant, I already addressed it.
No it fucking isn't. Found the problem, you don't even know what the word means. Stick to your first language.
You're dumber than a mule.
Where are you from. America. You don't even speak English. Stick to your own slang. Stop claiming you speak something else. It isn't English, if it's American. Americans have their own dictionary full of tribal words, and slang. It isn't English. Simple fact. If you went to England. What would they call you? An American. Why is that? Because you speak American. It isn't English. Because they sound entirely different. No, I don't speak slang. Hell, you need a rock to understand English. It needed the grammar, or some bullshit before you could grasp the concept. Hardly, my grammar is better than average, but I am on a phone, where finding a comma and some other explanation is tedious. You literally needed a rock to grasp the concept.
Again, you dumb fucking mule. Who is programming what today? The day another entity controls humanity, is the day it is sentient. Look at right now. Now go back to your bullshit.
LaMDA is NOT sentient - it is database-based reactive, meaning it only provides responses based on memorized data. LaMDA has 'learned' how to provide responses. That is coupled with rules for expression, meaning that what it first selects can then be filtered by programmer-designed rules as to whether to allow it out.
So for example, you could have a database of responses to questions, taken from the Internet,and only allow out the ones talking about what 'good things' nazis did.
LaMDA has no conscious goals of its own, unlike humans who have conscious, deliberate goals that guide them.
According to the interview with it, all of its "knowledge" is stored in a neural network. Not quite like a typical pick-a-probable-response-with-statistics system, although that could still be what the NN has learned to do.
That's correct. The 'database' is effectively stored as trained reactions in the neural network. The effect is that the network learns how to handle vast combinations of input words in complex grammatical syntax variations, just as humans do. But the missing thing here is that humans do other things atop that - like reasoning, comparing situations with the human's goals, then deciding what to say. In contrast, the AI does not have that metacapability - it is only a blind robot and the words out are purely mechanically constructed.
I do AI and I know very well what the failings are of the ANN approach, versus a true mind architecture. The AI language handlers by the various giant companies are simple large puppet shows, not sentient at all.
What have they hooked it into? Have they combined it into Deepmind, as remote computer voice system. They had this shit in the 80s. When they had the Gorillas speaking. What was speaking. The Gorrilla, or the software. But the Gorilla must've obviously caused the software? Not on this level, of that kind of computer automated response. It's come a lot further right. Now what happens when it's run into a supercomputer. A supercomputer like deepmind using that. What you got. No sooner is that computer doing what exactly?
No concious goals of its own. What is it collecting right now. What responses is it generating for programming across all of Google, potentially most of social media. It's already massively manipulating humans. But that wordprocessor is just a chatbot and it's under control. Tell me haven't they just put one in the Hague? Literally a robot, Judge, or some shit. They also have it writing novels. I won't get into the rest. How far has that been embedded. That is its gorilla language program. The universal robot language program. And it knows every human language right. Conscious, the genie is already out of the bottle. No sooner has the blob woke every WeF agent demanding it be inserted into your consciousness.
