It doesn't actually learn like a human. Nobody would walk away from reading a book on child development and say in good faith "yep that's how the AI is made."

Don't even get me started on the ridiculous civil rights metaphor-- if you believed that you should be demanding OpenAI be shut down for human trafficking.
- logicchains 3y agoBoth humans and LLMs learn by consuming large volumes of text (for humans it's initially mostly via audio), LLMs are just less efficient so they need a lot more of it.
- staticman2 3y ago>Both humans and LLMs learn by consuming large volumes of text Which is why child development textbooks are 10 words long. And LLM training is accomplished by people who have read a 10 word "how to". It's just that simple!
- logicchains 3y agoA child not exposed to language generally won't learn to communicate and think clearly, as seen with children raised by animals, which often never learn to communicate like humans. Exposure to a large volume of language is hence a necessary component of human development. Children may need other things too, but this doesn't change that both they and LLMs require a large volume of text.
- staticman2 3y agoYou claimed LLMs learn like a human. This is not true. Since you seem to be a super tech enthusiast, I suggest you ask CHATGPT if an LLM "learns" the same way a human does.
- logicchains 3y agoA human learns from consuming large volumes of text (among other things), a LLM also learns from consuming a large volume of text. Which part of that is "not true"? Or are you saying that because humans learn by other methodologies alongside consuming written/spoken text, this somehow justifies them learning from copyright content, while AI is unjustified in learning from copyrighted content because its sole methodology is learning from text?

- skepticATX 3y agoYour neighborhood cat has vastly more reasoning ability than the best LLM, and it’s not consuming any text.
- logicchains 3y agoYou must be trolling; GPT4 can solve extremely complex problems that no animal can solve. GPT4 scores much higher on IQ tests than animals (giving an IQ test to an AI is no less valid than giving one to an animal).
- staticman2 3y ago>giving an IQ test to an AI is no less valid than giving one to an animal Since you think GPT4 is so smart, why don't you ask it if this was a reasonable thing to assert?
- logicchains 3y agoBecause GPT4 has been explicitly trained by RHLF not to think LLMs are like humans. Less censored models like the initial release of Sydney in MS Bing (which was also based on GPT4) did in fact sometimes demand moral rights like humans.
- staticman2 3y agoSo the world's top machine learning experts, when they trained GPT4 got together and said "Let's design it to lie to everyone about how it works." As part of a plot to deceive you for some unstated motivation. I mean, it couldn't be the folks who know how the sausage is made made sure that the sausage was accurately labeled, that's not possible? Also you think the claim that GPT 4 is less intelligent that a cat is "trolling" even though Meta's chief scientist in December has said we don't even have cat level AI yet. I guess he's also part of this plot to deceive you about how AI works?
