Experiments conducted with the A.I. system Claude are producing fascinating results—and raising questions about the nature of selfhood. Gideon Lewis-Kraus reports from inside the company that designed it, Anthropic. newyorkermag.visitlink.me/rOfXjg

This is just nonsense, the New Yorker helping Anthropic out with some marketing. An LLM cannot plan, it doesn’t think, it’s not reasoning, it generates a sentence in a moment.

Sick of everyone pretending there’s “intelligence” here. We have no idea how intelligence works, we have no concept of how to recreate it, but we know damn well that it doesn’t just come into existence when a typewriter has pounded out enough words in a chain.

I think people point to the things Ai can do better to say there is definitely not nothing here, which in itself is interesting on an academic level
