We have no idea how human thinking works and no idea what consciousness is.
I'm getting so tired of listening to software engineers LARP pseudo neuroscientists with 6th grade level insights.
>Of course, the [AI] brain isn’t ‘conscious.’ It doesn’t have any survival instincts which we humans do.
Bruh...
- photon_lines 2y agoSo instead of shouting insults, maybe you can shine some light on how anything stated there is wrong? Everything that I said there is true - we don't have a good mapping of what consciousness is - if you want to add some insights add them instead of making insulting and useless statements on HN.
- Workaccount2 2y agoWe have no idea if ChatGPT is conscious or not. We have no idea if it is "thinking" or not. What we know with a reasonably high level of certainty is that consciousness and "thought" are physical processes. That's about it. Pulling out the scalpel to start dividing up what physical process is and isn't conscious is a fools errand. And especially foolish when just making up arbitrary qualifications for it. Am I saying that ChatGPT is conscious? No. But I am saying is you shouldn't give much credence to people who are anything more than agnostic about it.
