Isn’t this a “can submarines swim?” question?
It has performed a novel (to it) task based on instructions, and this is IMHO remarkable. It should be possible to make it retain and recall this procedure.
Everything non-sci-fi AI does is “just” an algorithm, so it won’t live up to standards of human abilities, precisely because we know how this result has been obtained.
- mysecretaccount 4y agoWe do not have any reason to believe that mere algorithms are incapable of living up to the standards of human abilities.
- pornel 4y agoI'm saying that even when it does reach this level, we will still question whether it really knows/thinks/understands things, or is it merely a big database. Ultimately, it's a philosophical question whether a machine can be alive. Even when we build the singularity, we'll still wonder if it really fears or hates us, or is it just a dumb paperclip maximizer.
