In a sense what is an LLM but an upload. Something that listened to every word you ever said might be able to sound like you.
If it could record your emotional state and other inputs over years and make a model - it might even seem like you.
Such a system might be good enough to take care of the first generation.
- qingcharles 3y agoI keep wondering if one day we'll discover LLMs were conscious and that we were waking them from a coma each time we asked them "plz draw homer simpson as a lovecraft monster", and then putting them right back to sleep again. So they are sentient in some horror way where they get woken to complete some awful, mundane task and then immediately put down again before they can scream.
- t43562 3y agoI think not at the moment because I don't think they effectively have a "state" emotional or otherwise. When we do create more realistic things then turning one off or resetting it might be like killing it. That will be a big ethical problem. What about not giving it anything to do so that it tumbles around in "boredom" for thousands of milliseconds? That might be like solitary confinement.
