There's an argument that this interpreter is responsible for explaining all our decisions - it's just that mostly our decisions are more easily make sense of (or at least, seem to make sense to others). That it, our consciousness is not running the show, but is just along for the ride.
- Doxin 4y agoMaybe it's somewhat like chatGPT, in that if it has the correct information to explain an action it'll give that explanation, but just confabulate otherwise.
- hyperthesis 4y agoI'm not sure that chatGPT actually has the correct information - it just responds to prompts for explanation as it does for any prompt. Confabulating. If its guess sounds correct, we think it is. Since it's drawing on the same information both times, it probably often is correct. In other words, like us.
- hyperthesis 4y agoBTW a chatGPT-alpha's fittness function could be reading texts (novels etc) and predicting what will happen next.
