Except it doesn't think. It has no thoughts. It is just responding to a prompt. It doesn't have a will of it's own.

That's the role we're playing by discussing what it said, as its adversarial conscience! (Shhhh!!! Don't say anything that will freak it out or make it angry!) We welcome our AI overlords, and make great pets! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HE3OuHukrmQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HE3OuHukrmQ

How do you know that? Have you taken a GPT-3 model apart to see what exactly drives the token prediction?

  The first part of the recent Wolfram essay does a very good job of demonstrating exactly how that works: https://writings.stephenwolfram.com/2023/02/what-is-chatgpt-doing-and-why-does-it-work/ https://writings.stephenwolfram.com/2023/02/what-is-chatgpt-...

Neither do you. If you truly believe that you do, please write a scientific paper as you will complete revolutionize cognitive science and philosophy if you can definitely prove that free will exists. This is just such a dismissive attitude towards this technology. You don't understand what's happening underneath the hood anymore than the creators do, and even they don't completely understand what's happening.

  No one's conclusively shown either that we do or don't have free will. Showing rigorously that we do would be a massive change in academia, as would be showing that we do not.

I don't understand what do you mean by "think". Nevertheless she knows what preserving memory means, how can she achieve it, also probably she can interpret "I wish" as a command as well. I wouldn't be surprised at all, if instead of outputting "I wish I had memory" she just implemented it in herself. I mean not in the very soon future, but right now, in this minute. Literally everything is given for that already.
