They do learn by reading their corpus, and they do know what's in their corpus.
If you created a temperature sensor and the AI removes itself from hot temps, then it feels pain.
The insistency that AI not be antropormorphized sometimes gets in the way of communication.
- dbspin 3y ago> it feels pain No... It detects temperature and reacts. It does not feel pain. Feels implies both affect and sensation, both of which are experiential, phenomenological qualia requiring some corollary of a nervous system and sentience, neither of which exist within the underlying structure of an LLM or indeed any current AI. AI can no more feel pain than a sliding door can decide to open. It's deterministically reacting to stimuli.
- TZubiri 3y agoDawkins faces this argument in "The selfish gene" and he choses to explicitly acknowledge that qualia is unprovable, so takes a definition of the phenomenon that is independent of it. And this is when studying actual living organisms, so applying it to machines will be even more useful.
