But box with mysterious glow

We have so little idea of what "intelligence" is, that we're constantly moving the line backwards and admitting that various organisms might actually be more self aware than we thought.

Case in point, another human comparison benchmark needs to be retired after this blog.google/innovation-a...

This reminds me of the scientists who thought two teenagers had psychic powers en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project...

I've seen at least one AI apologist (James Cameron) claim that human artists are nothing other than a "model" themselves.

I mean all indications are this is, in fact, how our brains works. I don't think current AI is doing enough to be qualified as sentient, but I suspect we will achieve that feat before we know we have done so because of how imprecise our ideas of intelligence are.

* real brain is I had to shorten my comment and it messed up the grammar

Exactly! I await the time one of these AIs is made able to actually constantly retrain in response to user input...

My read of the article was quite different. The AI researchers are like a bunch of bemused Dr Frankensteins. Something so powerful has been created, and we don't know exactly how it works (the wright brothers/747 analogy). It's all so fascinating.

This is the blurst of times

Hahaha

You REALLY think you have a leg to stand on??

not every sentence is output, some get fed back in directly, trying to mimic internal dialog like we do this does give it some basic capabilities for planning and goal setting, especially across multiple turns, even if ephemeral and lost to the ether afterwards
