You're overreaching quite a bit here, or I think you're misinterpreting what Parent said. I interpreted what they said as: it seems the difference in how we "know" something vs how an LLM "knows" something might actually be closer than some suspect. this certainly is not an "end of science".
- avgcorrection 4y agoNot the end. Just the exact opposite attitude that an inquisitive and humble scientist should have. So unlikely to go anywhere. A “scientist” looks out at his living room. My Roomba and my cat have their own lifes. Who’s to say that they are not in fact the same in kind (but not degreee)? Good luck with that, professor.
