I don't find this take useful. We have little understanding of what conscience is, and how human train of thought really works. The modern LLMs IMO resemble more and more Chinese room problem. Maybe we don't like the mechanistic linear-algebra-based steps involved in the production of the output, but the end result is closer and closer to people's output. IMO this is very natural to start anthropomorphizing that.
- armada651 1mo agoWhat is the value in anthropomorphizing it? Often I get the feeling that it's more about the sales pitch of selling these AI as general intelligence than it is about providing a truthful insight into how these models actually arrive at the output.
- sega_sai 1mo agoI don't think there is value per se, but it is just natural (at least in the environment I am in). I.e. when we discuss the analysis/code/ideas from one LLM or another, we describe it Claude/Gemini/Codex/etc did that and it comes like a person.
