Yes, but that's already obvious for most intellectuals. I'm wondering how the general public will react, think and act. If he were to be elected presi...

Let's say Trump got prison time, even if it's just one year. If he were to win the election anyway, what would this mean for the spirit of the US popu...

The OP question would be meaningless. The AI debate would be meaningless. All debates about "is that art?" would be meaningless. And instead the conve...

I have to make the argument for why the question asked is arbitrary in order for making the expanded argument for why such discussions are meaningless...
May 30, 2024 at 12:14
Once again... Once again... The definition of art is part of the thread's core question if "Idol" is art. I made an entire argument for why it is not,...
May 30, 2024 at 09:38
That's not the issue here, I'm talking about a broader perspective of how society handles knowledge and how to mitigate unnecessary lack of clarity th...

I rarely see this. Fuzzy defined terminology constantly gets in the way of depth in discussions. Just because I'm able to cut through it doesn't mean ...

I disagree. Duchamp's intention was focused on being a message, a communication through expression. Regardless of what that message is, it wasn't made...

Why is it not important if we can? Aesthetic appreciation is not the same as "art" and having well defined terms are good for preventing language to g...
May 29, 2024 at 16:07
Your appreciation as the receiver (audience/viewer/listener) is in my view not enough for the criteria of calling it "art". People can have an aesthet...
May 29, 2024 at 15:44
I define expression through the lens of intention. It's either "content" or "art". "Content" is primarily expression that has an overweight into comme...

The irony is that we will probably use these AI systems as tools to make further progress on the journey to form a method to evaluate self-awareness a...
May 23, 2024 at 11:19
It's rather showing a limit of our ability to know that it is thinking. Being the outsider feeding the Chinese characters through the door, we get the...
May 23, 2024 at 09:06
Your criticism had zero counter-arguments and with an extremely arrogant tone in with a narrative of ridiculing and strawmanning everything I've said ...
May 23, 2024 at 08:38
This is anti-intellectualism. You're just proving yourself to be an uneducated person who clearly finds pride in having radical uneducated opinions. Y...
May 22, 2024 at 13:09
I never said it was a test. I've said it was a problem and an argument about the inability for us to know if something is actually self-aware in their...
May 22, 2024 at 13:09
You have demonstrated even less. You've done no real argument other than saying that "we can walk because we have legs", a conclusion that's so banal ...
May 21, 2024 at 16:18
Why is that moving a goal post? It's literally what engineers use today to design things. Like how they designed commercial drones using evolutionary ...
May 21, 2024 at 15:59
Maybe read the entire argument or attempt to understand the point I'm making before commenting. Did you read the part about how robots can even walk t...
May 21, 2024 at 15:48
In what way? Evolution is about iterations over time and nature is filled with different iterations of cognitive abilities, primarily changing based d...
May 21, 2024 at 15:43
That is not a relevant question as I'm not deducing from imaginary premises. I'm deducing from the things we know. If that premise were the case, then...
May 21, 2024 at 14:08
What do you mean has happened only "once"? And in a situation in which you have only one instance of something, is it more or less likely that the sam...
May 21, 2024 at 13:39
That consciousness emerged as features in animals through evolution is as close to facts that we have about our biology. And the only things we so far...
May 21, 2024 at 13:33
Do you have an alternative or additional option that respects science?
May 21, 2024 at 13:27
I'm saying that this is at the most fundamental, deducible in some form, answer to what has qualia. We don't know if consciousness can be formed delib...
May 21, 2024 at 13:09
You still have the problem of the chinese room. How do you overcome that? It's more important for concluding subjectivity for machines than for other ...
May 21, 2024 at 12:55
This is simply wrong. These are examples of what I'm talking about: https://hai.stanford.edu/news/examining-emergent-abilities-large-language-models h...

People, when seeing a beautiful rock falling and smashing to pieces, speak of the event with "poor rock", and mourn its beauty to have been destroyed....
May 19, 2024 at 11:34
The current models already pass the turing test, but it doesn't pass the Chinese room analogy. The turing test is insufficient to evaluate strong AI. ...
May 19, 2024 at 11:22
But that's a problem with language itself. Not using such pronouns would lead to an extremely tedious interaction with it. Even if it was used as a ma...
May 18, 2024 at 12:59
Haven't we always done this? Like Copernicus placed our existence in our solar system outside the center, which made people feel less "special" and es...
May 18, 2024 at 12:26
I do not understand the conclusion that if we have an AI that could replicate human thought and neurological processes, it would replace us or anythin...
May 18, 2024 at 10:30
While I don't believe in the simulation argument because there's no evidence for it, similar to any evidence for a God in theistic arguments, there ar...

For anyone using ChatGPT for anything other than just playing around, it's clear that it's a tool that requires a bit of training to get something out...
May 16, 2024 at 12:00
The problem is that it influence your conclusions overall. It becomes part of the premisses for that conclusion even though it should be excluded. The...

Intention is still just my technical term for you guiding the model. If it's left to generate without any input it will just randomize in meaningless ...

Actually, OpenAI was purely open source before they realized they needed investments for the amount of computing power needed to handle the training o...

Intention is more than just will, intention drives creation in a fluid constant manner, not just a will to paint a park, but every detail of that park...

Neither is an argument that compares laws based on actions that aren't within the actions being targeted by existing laws. The training of these model...

There are better ways to make money. It's easy to fall into the debate trap of always summerizing anything against companies as having pure capitalist...

Because the issue that the whole argument I made is about... is that there are claims of copyright infringement put on the process of training these m...

No, the AI system and the brain function in their physical process has no accountability because you can only put guilt on something that has subjecti...

And those extensive intentions are what, in your perspective? And in what context of copyright do those intentions exist? Not exactly sure what point ...
May 07, 2024 at 11:36
Why is it irrelevant? The system itself lacks the central human component that is the intention of its use. While the human has that intention built i...
May 06, 2024 at 18:54
The system doesn't think, the system doesn't have intention. Neither writer exists within the system, it is the user that informs the intention that g...
May 06, 2024 at 13:01
According to the logic of the argument. Copyright law does not cover these things and the argument I'm making is that there are problems with people's...

The definitions of how artists work upon inspirations and other's work is part of the equation, but still dependent on the intention of the artist. Th...

If the user asks for an intentional plagiarized copy of something, or a derivative output, then yes, the user is the only one accountable as the syste...

Rather than have the AI write for you, write your own post and maybe analyze the grammar and structure by the AI as support. While AI functions well a...
