Reply to comment by Nyanraltotlapun in [R] Reflexion: an autonomous agent with dynamic memory and self-reflection - Noah Shinn et al 2023 Northeastern University Boston - Outperforms GPT-4 on HumanEval accuracy (0.67 --> 0.88)! by Singularian2501

This is not an alien intelligence yet. We understand how it works how it thinks. But eventually this version can generate an AI that is harder for us to understand, and that version can generate another ai. At some point it will become alien to us because we may not understand the math behind jt,

We don't understand how it works. We understand how it's trained but we don't really understand the result of the training and exactly how it arrives at a particular output. The trained model is an incredibly complex system.

Well, our own body is alien to us. The brain, the gut, the endocrine system, and so on. There are emergent complexities everywhere from giant black holes to a pile of dirt. It is the same with conceptual things like math or computer science. Simple axioms and logic gates lead to beautiful complex systems.

I guess, we should get used to "not understanding" at this point.

Its alien not because we don't understand It, but because It is not protein life form. It have nothing common with humans, It does not feel hunger, does not need sex, does not feel love or pain. It is metal plastic and silicone. It is something completely nonhuman that can think and reason. It is the true horror, wont you see?

>We understand how it works how it thinks

Sort of partially. And also, it is false to assume in general. Long story short, main property of complex systems is the ability to pretend and mimic. You cannot properly study something that can pretend and mimic.
