That was very weird. I honestly didn't understand what he intended that to provoke. If anything it makes me doubt a claim more if it comes from a priest than from an engineer. Surely he should have known that.
- hnfong 4y agoAn engineer is a profession that deals with things that (probably) don't have souls. A priest is a profession that deals with souls (allegedly, depending on your religious convictions). Lemoine is essentially claiming the neural network has a soul. Being a priest is a proper credential for that, even if you don't believe in priestly stuffs. IMHO, I wouldn't trust any engineer to lecture me about whether some AI has a soul. Not that I'd trust a random self-proclaimed priest, but that's another matter.
