>e.g. even doesn't monitor its own output vs. its intentions It wouldn't have "intentions" in any human manner. It would have to project a response for each token, and then use that token to generate the next token of response. Almost like it has to rethink things through for each syllable. One might compare it to giving a human a prompt and letting them add one word, and then giving the same prompt with that word added to a second human and letting them add one word, and so on. It could easily end up with a sensible end-state even though there was no continuous intent from start to end, just aligned intent token by token taken from context. This is the most interesting response I've gotten that demonstrates gpt-4 viewing its own output as it is built up: >Yes, I am familiar with the story you're referring to. The title of the short story is "The Machine That Won the War." It was written by Isaac Asimov and first published in 1961. The story is a conversation between three men who played major roles in a war against an alien race, and they discuss the role of a machine called Multivac in winning the war. >However, it seems that I've made an error in my recollection, as the specific detail you mentioned—refusing to work until the engineer says 'please'—is from a different short story, "Sally," also by Isaac Asimov. In "Sally," autonomous cars stop working until a command is given courteously, using the word 'please.' This was one large reply, not two separate ones.
