ASI X-risk people are the ones repeatedly warning against anthromorphization. An LLM isn't a person, it isn't a creature, it isn't even an agent on its own.
It's an autocomplete that got trained on a big enough dataset of human writing that some of the simpler patterns in that writing got embedded in the model. This includes some things that look like very simple reasoning.
- noduerme 3y agoI think social media is already filling the role of a nightmare-AI, in terms of boiling away all reasoning in search of prioritizing simple, auto-complete sorts of conclusions. The only thing scarier is something that reaches an internal consensus based on faulty notions a million times faster. [edit] oh yeah, and can also quickly solve 0-day exploits to test its conclusions.
