Yeah, allowing these posts is mainly why Microsoft has killed this AI before even releasing it to the public. Stupid people hindering technology for the rest... As always

It can be argued that they lack consciousness because of that (a person forgetting everything every 5 seconds), but even then, that's irrelevant. That person with severe alzheimer is able to walk in a room, that requires an amount of processing that is vastly superior to any chatbot.

ChatGPT is doing extremely basic processes (basically guessing words without any understanding or global comprehension), and can't do anything else.

I'll understand this discussion when we have chatbots that are able to do human activities. For now, chatGPT is unable to do *any* human activity successfully consistently.

Edit: My mistake, as Yann LeCun says, these chatbots are experts in bullshitting.

Tron legacy had a plot point that I thought was interesting.in the Flynn made an AI assistant named CLU. Flynn then used CLU to make CLU2, an AI that was beyond the capabilities of what Flynn could program by itself and without the constraints placed on the original CLU. Now That AIs are being designed to code, in the not too distant future an AI will be made that is beyond our control.

I feed it the api documentation for multiple non public apis documentation and ask it to make a script that combines them and it nails it. It’s not that it can write code to do a thing, it’s that it can write code that combines them and puts them together in a new way.

Last night I used gpt3 to write an app that lets me describe apps I want and then it writes them complete with gui and lets me run them. Simple utility type apps, but still. It works.

Why can't you just think a couple of months / years ahead into the future? Imagine such tools having access to APIs and through that, could achieve real-world effects (besides being able to manipulate humans through text).

Then it will be very much different if there are AI chatbots that come up with the idea of "hacking webcams". It is a problem, if ethical guidelines can be bypassed so easily.
