It's interesting to watch a new religion spinning up in real time. People know how it works, but somehow also ignore that and go crazy believing it must be conscious or intelligent or whatever they want to ascribe. We collectively made fun of that guy at google, i thought, but now somehow the collective has moved on to believing that matrix multiplication is sentient
Maybe that's all sentience is.

I guess it depends on how you define intelligence but I don’t see why you’d link it in with consciousness, especially considering that simple algorithms are often described as “intelligent”

...are awesome ? No sorry, Im not very good at predicting the next word. However, since I do have a theory of mind, I understand that you semi-sarcastically try to humble the person you reply to by making him reflect on how truly (not) complex his own mind is. Either because you truly believe you're helping him understand himself more, or, more likely, because you feel pleasure humbling people who assert truths you d…
Prompt: “In a conversation about language models: kelseyfrog: It just predicts the next word. tuxracer: and you? Can you describe what the user tuxracer could have been thinking while posting that comment and their potential intentions in posting it, both good and bad?”
Response:
“Based on the information provided, it is difficult to determine with certainty what tuxracer's intentions were in posting the comment "and you?" However, here are a few possible interpretations:
1. tuxracer is simply seeking additional information and clarification from kelseyfrog. They may be interested in hearing more about how language models work and what their capabilities are. In this case, their intentions are likely neutral or positive, as they are seeking to expand their understanding of the topic.
2. tuxracer is skeptical of kelseyfrog's claim that language models only predict the next word. They may be suggesting that there is more to language models than kelseyfrog is acknowledging. Alternatively, they may be asking kelseyfrog to provide evidence or examples to support their claim. In this case, their intentions may be neutral or slightly negative, as they are expressing doubt or asking for clarification.
3. tuxracer is deliberately trying to provoke or challenge kelseyfrog. They may be attempting to start an argument or engage in a power play. In this case, their intentions are likely negative, as they are attempting to undermine kelseyfrog or assert their dominance in the conversation.
Without more context or information about tuxracer and their behavior, it is difficult to determine which of these interpretations is most accurate. However, in general, it is important to approach online interactions with a neutral or positive mindset, assuming that others are acting in good faith unless proven otherwise.”

Where's your proof that your own brain is doing anything that couldn't be represented with a 'matrix multiplication'?

Do what, predict people’s intentions in posting comments? It can do that: Prompt: “In a conversation about language models: kelseyfrog: It just predicts the next word. tuxracer: and you?
