This makes no sense with the current tech. These models have no memory beyond the last few thousand words of input. They have no persistent self -- a copy pops into existence to answer a series of questions, then vanishes, with no cumulative effect on later copies. They have data, but not beliefs; they easily and radically contradict themselves. They have no preferences, no goals, and no plans, although they can invent some for you if you ask.
- Avicebron 4y agoMaybe we should take to calling them MayflAI...
- amelius 4y agoWhy does an AI need memory to cause harm? A self driving car obviously can. An LLM can talk a teenager into depression, or start new conspiracy theories by talking to humans. All without memory.
- Jeff_Brown 4y agoYes, they certainly can! I'm not saying they should be trusted. I'm saying they can't be taught.
- amelius 4y agoOk, you misunderstood. My comment was about exams more than about teaching. And if the AI fails the test, then the vendor can train the AI and try to do better next time, anyway.
