If it'll get people to stop accusing other people of anthropomorphizing, I'm 100% on board. Now if you can think of a way to get people to quit asking for definitions of the words intelligence and consciousness, you'll be a legend and maybe these discussions will advance for the first time.
- TremendousJudge 4y agoWell, I tried my best. Another commenter summed it up better without using the term "anthropomorphizing" at all, but it came out a bit more condescending than necessary.
- IIAOPSW 4y agoHang on while I become a legend. I use GPT3 to generate the usual trite arguments about intelligence and consciousness why computers won't ever get there. Of course I don't actually reveal that a computer is generating my responses until later on. Eventually everyone will become jaded and skeptical that the other participants in that conversation are real people. Soon all arguments about machine intelligence will devolve into accusations of using GPT3 or not. Some day, even mentioning consciousness will just make everyone assume you're probably a GPT3 troll. This kills the conversation in a way that makes a valid point. If the bots can't be reliably identified, the proof is in the pudding and the matter is settled.
