> What if, instead, the conscious intelligence that differentiates humans from other animals is an emergent quality of language learning, specifically Sure, you can argue that you have solved the human exclusive part of intelligence, that is a possibility. But we have not yet solved the monkey part of intelligence, the part that all mammals possess that lets them act intelligently in this world. Without such animal intelligence I believe it is impossible for the model to not make really stupid mistakes no human would make, because it lacks the intuitive understanding of the world all animals has. I don't think training on text will ever produce that level of understanding, no matter how hard you try, text just isn't the right medium to build an intuitive understanding of reality like a dog has.
