#42From the judge prompt in the paper: > Papers asking whether LLMs have such properties are assuming them (e.g., ‘Do LLMs have musical talent’, ‘Do LLMs present empathy’, etc). This seems like...a very bad definition of "assuming" something? If I ask "do you know how to play the guitar?" I am absolutely not assuming that you know how to play the guitar!
You're still assuming the person is capable of playing the guitar. Does your fridge play the banjo? Doesn't make sense does it?
>Does your fridge play the banjo? Doesn't make sense does it?
Of course it makes sense. The answer is a simple and obvious "no". I don't need to assume anything to ask the question.

#43NAND gates via unit triggers, perceptron via NAND gates — same pattern as Magic: The Gathering TC and redstone. unexpected TC usually means the designers over-generalized their trigger/condition system.

Isn’t the entire paper is trying to point out that the second you ask the question “Do LLM have ”, you have to assume that they do, even before you make any assessment? Just because the person asking the question isn’t aware of they’re implicitly making that assumption, doesn’t change the fact that a logical assumption has been made. It just makes the questioner ignorant of the assumptions they’re making. Personally…

1. Do LLMs have loyalty?
2. Do LLMs have sorrow?
3. Do LLMs have moods?
4. Do LLMs have destinies?
5. Do LLMs have spirits?
6. Do LLMs have holidays?
7. Do LLMs have a sense of boredom?
I say I don't believe LLMs have those properties, but you believe that since I asked those questions that I actually must assume LLMs must have them?
Also, is this specific to LLMs, or if someone asked questions like "Does a blade of grass (etc) have ?", you have to assume they do?

Thank you. That was a ... difficult ... read. I don't believe the conclusions really follow from the evidence and statements provided, but frankly it's hard to tell because the writing is very wordy and circumspect. I think the author should probably have their thesaurus taken away.
