Google is embedding inaudible watermarks right into its AI generated music::Audio created using Google DeepMind’s AI Lyria model will be watermarked with SynthID to let people identify its AI-generated origins after the fact.
You only have thoughts because of electricity.
Do you believe in the existence of a soul or some other god-gene that separates us from machines?
No one said anything about electricity. A calculator can exist on paper, or stones on sticks.
No one said anything about souls. Please dont make up shit no one said.
I am not an equation. I do not take X input to produce Y output. My thoughts do not require outside stimuli. My thoughts do not give the same output for the same input. I can think, and ambulate and speak, inside a dark room with no stimulus based entirely on my own thoughts.
Chatgpt, and other language models, are equations. They trick you by using random number generation to simulate new outputs to repeat inputs, but if you open the code running the equation and learn how to fix the rng to a set value, you get the same outputs for each input.
Its not thought. Its an equation.
I am not saying non organic thought isnt possible. I am saying that a salesman pointed at a very very very big calculator and said “it definitely thinks! Its more than an equation!” And you, along with a lot of news outlets, fell for it.
We do not have machine brains yet. Someone just tried to sell calculators as if they were.
I mentioned electricity because it’s how our brains function identically to machines. It doesn’t have to be electricity, as long as the results are identical to intelligence.
If you don’t believe in something that separates life from machines, then there is nothing stopping us from manufacturing a machine that has identical processing capabilities as our own.
Yeah, this is where you’re wrong and I can understand why you think you’re different than AI. I guess you came up with your language all on your own. I guess you developed all of your ideas without outside stimuli. Heck, you aren’t even being shaped by this conversation right now. Lol.
We can agree on this. Keyword is ‘yet’.
Do… No, hold on. You just said the stupidest thing Ive seen so far on this AI debate. Do you think learning is only possible if you are an equation?
If I lock you in a dark sound proofed room, can you talk? Can you still think? Can you create new thoughts? If I take away all possible X inputs, are you suddenly paralyzed, with no way to create new Y outputs? (The answer is, obviously, that you can still think without fresh constant inputs.)
Chatgpt get locked in the same room. Can it respond? Can it develop new outputs with no input? Can it change its internal understandings? If you leave chatgpt alone, unbothered, will its internal data shift? Will the same X inputs suddenly produce Y outputs, even with fixed rng? (No. No it wont.)
Retaining information is not an equation. My memories and chatgpts server storage is not the thing that makes us definably different. The actual processing of the information is. Chatgpt takes an input, calculates it, spits out an output, and then ceases. Stops. Ends. The process completes, and the equation terminates.
You and I dont black out when we dont get inputs. We generate multilevel thoughts completely independently, and often unpredictably and unreproducably.
Youre falling for a very complex sleight of hand trick.
So you’re saying it’s impossible to make a machine that responds in an identical manner as intelligent life in the conditions you describe?
I suggest you re-read my last sentence. Perhaps it will clear some things up for you.
.
For fucks sake, quit making up shit I didnt say because you failed to find a gotcha against the things I say.
Do you think the existence of calculators makes machine thought impossible? No? Then why would you make up that I think so?
Chatgpt and its program families arent trying to be real AI. A salesman just wants you to think they are so you spend money on it.
They are language calculators. They were built with the intent of being language calculators. Their creators all understand they are just language calculators.
The handful of programmers who fell for the marketing, like that poor google idiot, all get fired. Why? Because their bosses now know that they dont understand the project.
An equation cannot think. That doesnt mean a machine cant, ever. It means that a machine who thinks will not be an equation calculator.
We can look at chatgpts code. We can see that it is only an equation. So long as it is only an equation, it isnt capable of thinking. Attempts at real AI may use some equations within the machine brain. But it cannot be a brain while the entire thing is only an equation.
Alright man, you gotta calm down.
I didn’t read what you said because it started off abrasive and incorrect.
Please, take a break and come back when you’ve cooled off. I can wait.
How about you come back when you respond after reading?
Dont waste my time with your anti science kookery that isnt even responding to the conversation. Thats the third time you failed to read what was given to you.
Alright, I asked nicely.
On the ignore list you go. Learn how to conduct yourself if you want to be taken seriously.
