Reply to comment by antellier in So I gave chatgpt some numerical sequences similar to what you find in iq tests to see if it was able to reason (to a certain extent) by Masspoint
no problem, apparently not a lot of people share your opinion :)

I wish they would, we need more people testing the limitations and capabilities of these things en masse, for science! We do what we must because we can!

well it was just by accident, I have done iq tests in the past and I was wondering how it would score on it. At first I thought it was crazy smart, but when I made that numeric sequence it showed pretty quickly it isn't that smart.
Because it was able to recognize in other numeric sequences positions of numbers, so this should actually be a pretty easy numeric sequence.
It couldn't see it, but still, it was able to understand it when I explained it.

I'm the furthest thing from knowledgeable about anything to do with computers really, but as far as I can tell, it seems like most people, not just the layman but the leaders in these industries and systems that are going to start incorporating it into their businesses and research practice, all seem to be struggling to treat AI with an appropriately objective attitude. I understand how big of a hurdle it is to accurately comprehend and predict the characteristics of distinctly non human consciousness because our frame of reference isn't comparable and we're the only ones making an effort to understand the consciousness of non humans.
I'm not just trying to criticize or bash anyone, I certainly don't have the ability to wrap my head around it, but I just can't imagine AI ever behaving and thinking in a way that would be reliably recognizable to us, kind of in the same way it doesn't make much sense to assume we'd be able to comprehend or relate to an Allen life form. One of the most popular alien theories is based around the idea that they would want to use us or our resources for something, but to me that seems like expecting birds and fish to want to ride people or build cars, only way further removed and unfamiliar.
Sorry I'm kind of rambling and a lot of this is probably real dumb, but it's the best I can muster lol

well I had a conversation with chatgpt about the similarities between human intelligence and machine learning and it kinda said the same but if you look at how human intelligence develops it is actually quite similar, the major difference is in the programming and the sensory input, but also the processing power.
That creates vastly different results, and since it is not biological I would not consider it alive either, or have a soul so to speak.
But it terms of reasoning, it defenitely can reason and that is quite revolutionary. I wouldn't go as far to say it has awareness or consciousness, but it certainly produces something that look similar to the outside world.
In the mind itself , it's just bits and bytes though, meaning it's basically just a calculator, that's pretty much what any computer is, but this calculator is so advanced it can mimic a type of consciousness.
