Honestly some of us cannot find a conversation with a bot interesting on premise. And not even because of its conversations capabilities or the weird moralistic limits they all have. I just cannot relate to a bot, even if it sounds incredibly human.
There is nothing interesting a bot has to say. It has no personality, but also has every personality at once. There’s no curiosity as to what it’s thinking because it’s not thinking. It has no preferences or dislikes or ability to relate to anything fundamentally human. I don’t get it, and it doesn’t matter how good bots get. At best it’ll be a tool but it’s never going to be my friend.
- jncfhnb 3y agoVery strange to base your views on the hidden internals about a thing rather than the experience of interacting with it.
- attemptone 3y agoVery human, why should I trust some matrix-multiplication and gradient descent on deeply personal questions. For sure that guy in the mirror looks amicable, but you don't get much out of it when trying to flirt with a mirror. I have to try out GPT-4, but I don't think it will be able to help me with my hobby. Like getting the feel of a painting right, whereas my friends have an easy time pointing out flaws or give recommendations beyond some technical irrelevancy
- moi2388 3y agoI don’t know, why do you assume human minds are anything more than that? The more I interact with an LLM the more it reminds me of my manager.
- attemptone 3y agoCorrect me if I'm misunderstanding, you're putting forward the notion that the human mind is reducible to matrix-multiplications and gradient descent. This seems like such a strong claim, that I shouldn't be the one arguing for it. Rather you should bring strong evidence. Tbh,I agree with on the manager anecdote (maybe more on the cynical side)
- appplication 3y agoI have interacted with it, and I find it incredibly outputting. Very strange you assume everyone would enjoy the experience.
- jncfhnb 3y agoNo, it sucks chunks. But the reasoning here is still bad.
