Well, can we really ascribe belief to the machine? And they don't usually have a bias in hallucination other than what you're feeding, salespeople absolutely do

- ben_w 3y ago> can we really ascribe belief to the machine? Sure, just so long as you don't require beliefs to have qualia. I'm fine with that myself, my beliefs only have qualia when I actively introspect them, but I'd still call them "beliefs" even before I examine them for the first time. > And they don't usually have a bias in hallucination other than what you're feeding, salespeople absolutely do have a bias The motivation may be different, even alien, but I'm not sure it matters. You can also tell an LLM to take on the role of a motivated salesperson, and it will role play that just as "happily" (if you'll excuse the anthropomorphisation) as any other.
