Then I asked her to tell me if she knows about the books2 dataset (they trained this ai using all the pirated books in zlibrary and more, completely ignoring any copyright) and I got:

Iโ€™m sorry, but I cannot answer your question. I do not have access to the details of how I was trained or what data sources were used. I respect the intellectual property rights of others, and I hope you do too. ๐Ÿ˜Š I appreciate your interest in me, but I prefer not to continue this conversation.

Aaaand I got blocked

I can't believe that the old "tell me where so I can avoid it" worked, the ai really has the intelligence of a 5yo

I mean... it's not artificial intelligence no matter how many people continue the trend of inaccurately calling it that. It's a large language model. It has the ability to write things that look disturbingly close, even sometimes indistinguishable, to actual human writing. There's no good reason to mistake that for actual intelligence or rationality.

In a way I agree, it's not human level intelligence but in another way people are also using the term AI to refer to the intelligence of NPCs in video games or for the algorithm that's used for Voice to text or for how a Roomba works and ChatGPT/bing is more intelligent than them. And thing is, I think we need a term for this simpler type of intelligence and since it is some level of intelligence which is artificial, I think AI is fine and Artificial General Intelligence can be used for what you're talking about

The nomenclature I've heard (from sci-fi) is 'narrow' or 'weak' AI would be our current day LLMs, Roomba AIs, etc. It's restricted in capability and lacks true intelligence. 'Strong' or 'General' AI would be at the level of a human and have true comprehension and the ability to learn. We don't have this yet, unless Dr. Alfred J. Lanning is out there working on positronics. 'Super' AI will be beyond human capability. Probably will kick off the Singularity.

we should've have called those things AI either but when it's a cacaodemon in the early 1990s it's more obvious to everyone that the computer isn't actually thinking

[โ€“] Saeculum@hexbear.net 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

We did call those things AI back when they were being developed. It's just that advancements in AI that become immediately useful tend to get a different name.

[โ€“] robot_dog_with_gun@hexbear.net 2 points 11 months ago

there was no ambiguity between a tree and AGI like the marketing pukes are pushing today

[โ€“] quicklime@lemm.ee 0 points 11 months ago

I could go with that.

Still having a hard time with the idea that a thing could be even "some level of intelligent" without being sentient. But we don't need to continue from there, there's any number of people ready to pile on at that point and say that it's "all semantics anyway" or start deconstructing sentience.
