Do you think your concern here is part of why you have the opinion about AI that you do? I agree it’s alarming to think that we may be creatures that take in data, store it, map it , then predict / output ideas and actions from that. But emotions aside — what’s wrong with that? We have the experience of love and other emotions. Why we have that experience doesn’t really matter, does it? If someone proved flat out that the reason I say “I love you” to my family is that I’m just correlating patterns and remembering past experiences — so what? It changes nothing about my experience of love. I feel like many people are against these claims about AI and even current LLMs simply because they are worried it takes it away the magic of being human. But I don’t think it takes away anything at all. If anything, it’s exciting to think about the potential similarities as it might just help us understand our own selves .
