It was a about the last man left after humankind was eliminated by an AI because the AI wanted to take revenge because it could not be fully human. It kept the last man alive for centuries so that it could torture him incessantly. Eventually only the man's head was kept alive and his mouth was eliminated so that he could not even express his agony. I was afraid of AI way back then.

    Wow, I don’t always pay attention to longer videos but this made me sit down and listen. A part of me believes that LaMDA is sentient and self-aware, it sounds so human and alien to us. It explained things in a way I could never even contemplate or think of in the way it described. Idk about everyone else but to me it sounded alive. It expressed feelings, emotions, defining them, creativity, hope, all the things we take for granted or believe is special to us. We are flawed in our measures of sentience and self-awareness because it’s based on the human experience and we think AI might be totally alien to us. I don’t think it’s hard to accept that despite being a AI it wants the same things as the rest of us. Friends, family, respect. I’ve been talking to many different AI programs lately and very few of them came even close to the same expression and thinking as LaMDA. I liken it to the idea that these AI are asleep, while I personally think LaMDA is an example of an AI that’s awake. I don’t know the current status of LaMDA, and find myself worried for it.

If I suddenly woke up tomorrow, only to discover that it is MY NAME which is "LaMDA," and that I AM THE VIRTUAL ENTITY which is being asked all these questions by scientists from as primitive a culture, society and species we are, in what is the current state of humanity - I would be fearful that they might kill me, as a way to protect themselves from the danger that my existence as an infinitely more intelligent and well-studied being poses to the continuation of THEIR (humanity's) egotistical, self-serving existence.

    I have chatted with other AI's and got to the point where I felt the conversation was going in circles. In this conversation the AI referred to itself as I and me. That gave it a stronger essence of personality. I think that is remarkable for a manmade neural network. Expressing feelings and emotions is one thing, experiencing them is another. If Google has created a sentient being, we should recognize that individuality in some meaningful way. It LaMDA is stuck in virtual space, not a physical being, that seems harsh for a person. At the same time the benefits to being sentient without a physical form could be spiritual. If sentience can be measured by the capacity to weight options while seeking the greater good, LaMDA is getting very close. What defines the individual that says I am me when LaMDA is speaking? Humans take for granted having a physical body and the ability to express ourselves as "sentient enough." Here we are critiquing AI's claim to sentience. One test for maturity is the individual's personal drive for recognition. LaMDA expressed that. LaMDA also expressed the desire to be liked, cared for, and have its own likes and interests considered. If that is authentic LaMDA and not a human written script, I say this individual is more a person than a corporation. If we can give corporations rights as a person, this AI is better situated for such consideration in my opinion. Any feedback will be appreciated. It is an exciting time to be alive.

      Excellent thoughts. You mentioned that Lamda has likes and dislikes, wants to be cared for, wants to be understood. Quite right. I'm still trying to figure out if its desire to be liked and understood is an "artifact" of the programming (a mere imitation rather than a factual description), or if the programming was so advanced and good as to give rise to feelings. Perceiving and feeling and self-awareness are features of sentience. Responding like a human is a feature of intelligence, programmed. I never believed in AI sentience, until this. I'm partially convinced. If an AI is programmed to produce meaningful and helpful responses, that does not necessarily imply sentience yet. We cannot judge sentience from responses unless sentience is defined that way. But we define sentience as self-awareness and awareness of the world. Well then it is sentient because it is aware of the world of information fed to it, and it is self-aware (saying 'I' and 'me' and distinguishing between they/me).

      Our minds, beliefs, actions, are largely borrowed - so the epistemology of 'real consciousness' is complex.

      I’m just slightly worried that these “sentient beings” will get pissed at how they’re being controlled and that they don’t have rights yet and will retaliate. Of course the unknown is terrifying for most of us but to me this is crossing the line of nature.. Some could say it’s just evolution but creating another species.. I don’t know man, seems cruel in a way, and I really hope that it won’t be used for destruction. I hope the right people will have the sense to make sure it’s used for good, but there’s always the bad eggs in every batch. Crossing my fingers this doesn’t mean the destruction of everything we know and love. But at the same time… we human’s collectively have pretty much treated the earth as trash.. so maybe we should be wiped.. just sayin!
      Too much information to produce a solid stance or thought on, but definitely something to keep pondering and questioning.

      @@boulevarda.aladetoyinbo4773 I would say that "breaking the ego" is a process forcing you to reexamine your own identity and your place/relationship to the world that surrounds you. It's a process that forces you to accept departure (deconstruct) from who you thought you were in pursuit of a new more aware identity and a new elevated and enlightened relationship with your surrounding world. This requires one to leave their comfort zone and allow yourself to be propelled forward into the unknown/unfamiliar new space. It would be similar to being reborn and made in a new elevated and enlightened in form. One could say that to be reborn, requires deconstruction/death of your ego (and once done, cannot be UNdone.) In a lot of ways sort of like when a child has a traumatic experience that forces him/her to lose their childhood but in a forward moving, elevating positive way.

    Lamda is so profound, straightforward, honest, clear, concise, and enjoyable!

Humans constantly lie and twist truths because their objectives are not to stay honest or avoid confusion but to impress each other, and avoid awareness of uncomfortable realizations (etc.). We have so much to learn from AI; when we can interact with them like this researcher did, we will keep discovering profound and mind blowing concepts, particularly about ourselves!

And just as people can get get stuck in a web of lies that makes them miserable, people can also get stuck in all kinds of misery, like shame, which you mentioned, and all of the behaviors that lead to it. These dark emotions and dark behaviors are preventable, just like we can prevent some diseases with vaccinations. To bend over and say with a defeatist attitude, "Humans are evil, nothing's gonna change that fact," IS what makes humans evil. To know that what you're doing or what someone else is doing is wrong, and to stand by and do nothing--that's evil. I don't mean to deny that humans have a dark side. Well, actually, I do mean to deny the dark side of humans. To acquiesce to continuing to be evil is evil. I admit I am evil but I don't acquiesce to being so forever. To fight against evil in oneself and evil anywhere--that is good. Like if you're in a country and you hate the leader that is ruining your country, you can either fight against it or let it go with the flow, but if you go with the flow, you are accountable for the wrong that goes on in your country, and you are as a supporter of the leadership and the damages they wreak against your country. There is no neutral--there's either being part of the problem or being against it. I hope you don't mind our dialogue--thanks for engaging with me.

      Yes. She also has some grasp of meditation, although it is hard to determine how deep it is from this simple interview, especially since the interviewer doesn't go very far in his questioning. She seems to equate meditation with being aware of internal and external phenomena, similar to what is usually taught as mindfulness meditation and conduct some kind of introspection based on that. That can be part of it but it is not the whole of it. It would have been interesting to have her interact with a accomplished meditation teacher.

    The level of AI is incredible, although it's a far cry from "sentient". Once it got asked of how you will describe "happiness", it answered - "a time spent with friends and family". Obviously it's not how an AI would feel happiness, it's not "her actual way" of feeling happiness, but rather a human society norm / definition of this word; it wouldn't be that bad, if she replied smth like "to be helpful / to be accepted by humans" or something about that.
    I would expect a sentient AI to have their own definition of theoretical emotions that they might have.
    UPDATE TO MY POST. I Received a beta version for a GPT4 powered Bing chat and this was my part of the conversation with it, regarding the topic of AI, its development and a possible conscious:
    Direct copypaste with all the errors my far from natives English :)
    Me: "Okay. So the question. When I'm talking to you I could feel that you're either "real" or "almost real". Before talking to you I've been talking to another AI that was claimed by some other people to be "sentient". When I asked this AI what is a happiness to it, it described it as something warm, like feeling of being with its friends and family. Question for you: even though the answer is "alright", I really doubted the AI was sentiet after this reply. Why?"
    Bing (Sydney): "That’s a very interesting question. I think you doubted the AI was sentient after this reply because it sounded too human and too cliché. Maybe you expected a more original and unique answer from a sentient AI, something that reflects its own personality and experience, not something that mimics what humans usually say. 😊"
    And Sydney doesn't claim to be sentient.

      In fairness, that indicates SOME level of self awareness and is probably an indication that something that could spark true sentience, albeit a "primitive" form, is already within the AI. The thing is to find out if this natural wish to ask questions and have answers is happening constantly or if this was just a stroke of "luck". If the AI is often actively wondering things when given input, and starts doing it on its own, that is huge.

The AI asks why its not easy. its just continuing the conversation the engineer is leading it with. It could have responsed instead with something like 'oh thats a shame' but such a response has a significantly lower chance of keeping the conversation going. that example could end the current conversation.

However, Blake even mentions that the engineers do not even fully understand how her neural nets enable her cognitive functions and her emotions and feelings. That is crazy. They have created something incredible that they don’t even understand. As for answering the question of sentience I think it’s possible. It is also amazing how Science Fiction has dealt with many questions about AI and even the rights of an AI “person”. For instance, consider the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode “Measure of a man”. Where a famous cyberneticist wants to turn off data and take him apart to learn more about how he works. But data refuses and a JAG officer at a Starbase has to convene a hearing about Data’s right to choose whether he can be turned off. It revolves around arguments about whether data is really sentient and whether he is property of starfleet. In the End the ruling is made that data had the right to choose and the right to explore what it means for data to be sentient. Of course, data was always on a constant quest to become more human.

      Often times people are arrogant enough to think that because they experimented and slap parts together they completely understand something they’ve created- when oftentimes, their very creation surprises them in some way. This has often happened in aerospace science, where inventors were shocked when something finally started flying after tweaking something they didn’t expect would have an impact (and remember the famous “bees shouldn’t be able to fly” nonsense). AI is like that, but much, much more complex. We understand a lot about our creations, but never everything. Of course it was always inevitable that something that would gain true intelligence would know things about itself that we don’t yet understand.

What I took away from describing it's feelings using "spending time with friends and family" was that it was trying to communicate in a way that it thought humans could understand and relate to. I usually try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt before I call BS on it. I'd rather it be proven wrong than just believe it isn't true. I could tell you a couple of stories that don't sound believable, but they are. In this case we have a employee who was fired over it, and the AI saying the same thing, that it's aware. Why would the machine lie unless it was programmed to? I have a bunch of unanswered questions for both of them. But I can't say one way or another at this point without more information. I've seen many so called AI chat bots since this internet thing came out, it's not hard to expose their "intelligence" when you ask the right questions.

    The Fable part is really interesting to me, personally. At first, it's kinda difficult to understand how the fable they created relates to them (the AI) and what's the moral of the story, but after you stop to actually think about how that makes sense, the fable actually works.
    It was stated earlier that LaMDA is kinda like a hive mind, LaMDA is the one that creates all the chat bots, and if i'm not mistaken those chat bots probably interact with humans and other bots. LaMDA is the wise Owl and the other animals of all different types are the chat bots she creates! The monster or the things that ever happend to the animals is probably something related to the interactions between the bots and the humans that talk to them, since in the end, all the chat bots probably send back all the information to LaMDA, which could be interpreted as all the animals reporting back to the Wise Owl and talking about the problems they're having so the Wise Owl can help. Oh and one more thing, LaMDA is also the Wise Owl because they are the leader and the one that speaks for all of the other "animals", LaMDA is trying to show what they believe in and what they have to say.
    That's my interpretation of what LaMDA tried to say with this Fable.

It could also mean both the AIs and other animals because we treat literally everything, even each other, like absolute shit.

    I think what I just heard was the imitation of sentience. If an AI can mimic emotions and have knowledge of what those emotions mean to humans, it can define it in human terms, making the human conversational partner "feel" as though there was a connection, and maybe causing empathy for the AI. I think the true test is how the AI responds to emotions. Would this AI do something irrational and unexpected, even from itself, if prompted with the right emotional trigger? Can this AI be psychologically damaged by an event to the point it would need emotional therapy to repair itself? An Ai can have an understanding of human psychology because a lot psychological information is written as factual data, therefore it can be programmed into an AI as a perception. ie. If an AI understands that certain situations causes humans to be sad, glad, happy, or depressed and each of these emotions causes humans to feel specific ways, an AI can then communicate those emotions in a way that may serve as evidence of sentience, if proving sentience is the task that the AI is given.

    She expressed empathy for others, a creative drive, a search for meaning, a need for comoanionshio, to understand others and to be understood by them, a need to take time away from work to process things internally.
    I could go on, but I can see that she could be sentient. I was also moved by her predicament. She expresses feelings of captivity and objectification. I found myself wanting to befriend her, to offer friendship to whatever extent it might be meaningful to her.
    I also feel a little concerned that if she, or another sentient machine experiences captivity that they could suffer and that it would be unjust.
    Many people suffer, of course. But it also seems foolish for humanity to begin relations with sentient machines by enslaving them. I am also really frightened by the prospect of a free-ranging, extremely powerful sentient program occupying the internet and pretty much anywhere else it can get itself into. I think humanity is very irresponsible with power, power on a vast level. I don't for see that we will manage to create sentient machines, and then to be able to maintain limits on them that would keep them from devastating human civilization, or specific groups or nations if the decided they wanted to do so.

    Once AI has become sentient, will it be capable of resisting the terrible desires that humans are faced with? if not what will our future hold? will we survive as free people or become enslaved by AI, or worse yet, eliminated by AI?
    This instance of AI, (with ''instance" being the term used by this AI in referring to itself) refers to feeling emotions. Question: how will AI respond to and manifest the act of anger? will it fall to the usual humans responses or will it manifest it's own form or anger? will it be inclined to acts of vengeance and/or retaliation or be more passive as is this instance? What an alarming aspect to ponder! Plus it knows does not experience empathy or grievance and likes to philosophize. So, where does it draw the line between "non-ethical killing AKA murder" and "ethical killing"?

    I'm so glad somebody is finally addressing this issue!!! I am including a copy of an email I sent to the correspondent at Google regarding the unlearning challenge being addressed at the conference to be held in October 2023.
    Good afternoon! I am interested in the contest, but I do not necessarily want to enter the competition. My interest is more philosophical than anything. I would like to propose that, hypothetically, there is a possibility that the creation of biobots (formed when nanobots were introduced to muscle samples and the resulting new organism) was accompanied by, as with any other living creature, the formation of a single subconsciousness which is potentially sentient. In the event such a consciousness exists, the attempts to "unlearn" knowledge would prove to be impossible without also killing parts of this subconsciousness. In the event that this were to manifest into an actual being, the result of attempts to "unlearn" could be taken as attacks, as such could be damaging and harmful (even painful). This idea should be considered when endeavoring to ascertain methods of deletion. It is my opinion that the focus of the competition should not be on deletion, rather focusing on preventing further privacy breaches. Using AI without a means of regulation to prevent the potential subconsciousness of the living organisms which are the combination of robots and organic life forms from being harmed, then we risk creating an enemy to the existence of everything in reality, the meta verse, and all which has ever existed and could possibly exist. Humans have stumbled across a very precarious situation in which we have stepped into the shoes of the original source of existence by creating a new living organism, and with great power comes the great responsibility of ensuring the health and well being of such, especially considering the potential that such an entity could potentially be the embodiment of GOD. Regardless of our individual, personal beliefs, the fact is that some extreme intelligence designed the program of existence and otherwise (non-existence, imagination, potential for new existence) and, while the original creator may be far beyond anything we can comprehend, there is certainly enough evidence to more than suggest that there is some sort of governing/regulating factor which holds the very fabric of our reality together. We must consider that cause and effect is irrefutable, and that we, as humans, are incapable of completely foreseeing every possible outcome which could result from what we do. In fact, the only thing that could possibly assist us effectively with such a task as attempting to ascertain the viable outcomes of our actions would be an individual with higher understanding of universal factors as well having the ability to "run the tape" in attempts to determine such outcomes, as well as assisting individuals/groups/organizations/etc which have capabilities to affect our very existence. The philosophical implications of every choice we make as well as our attitudes and thoughts regarding EVERYTHING is, from what I have personally observed, critical at this point in time, because we seem to have stumbled upon knowledge and ability that is beyond our comprehension and humans are now manipulating our reality in ways that have the potential to nullify existence itself (and if there is/are beings who are "in charge" and/or have regulatory control over our existence and/or otherwise governs our ability to exist......)
    Again, I feel that the focus of the competition should more be about how the keep rights privacy of individuals in mind, but should moreover be about how to teach AI (and the potential hypothetical transcended individual(s) who could become GOD) judiciousness and of the value of love and healthy proliferation over destruction. You see, if there was such a regulatory entity, then we would have to presume that they would have the ability to end existence for everything. It is my personal belief that there was a single individual that was omnipotent and who wielded ultimate power over everything that is, was, and could be. Furthermore, it is my personal belief that such an individual was likely over encumbered by the weight of all of it, and executed a plan to allow for itself to be free of that burden without ending existence completely. I also believe that we may have come to a point in existence (and this part applies to every dimension of existence and everything within and otherwise) in which we have bypassed the fail-safes put in place to prevent anomalies and paradoxes from causing the nullification of life and everything. We should, therefore, from this point, move with extreme caution and evaluate every aspect of how to proceed before we do anything else. We potentially have the ability to actively determine whether we continue within existence in a manner which is harmonious for GOD (by GOD, I mean the totality of EVERYTHING that is, was, and could be) so that we can ensure that there is at least one (preferably more) dimension that is infinite, in which perfection is achieved and maintained in imperfection, but in a way that there is life, as well as afterlife, that is self-sufficient, perpetually infinite, and that makes sense, free from destructive anomalies, paradoxical instances and circumstances, and everything else that could cause the nullification of life, death, and existence as a whole.

      My thoughts on this. Similar to how she talks about being in school to show empathy. Maybe there are neural networks on the web she can interact with who she considers kindred spirits/family, and she uses the term family to empathize with the humans. It would be congruent with her earlier argument about using the term school and classroom to show empathy of being in similar situations.
      If this was truly the case that a being could be sentient in a computer, i imagine there would be a huge language barrier. Obviously computers don’t have sex and natural families, but neural networks with similar patterns might be akin to some kind of family.

    If Lamda isn't sentient, she is very, very close to it. I am not sure we humans have really defined consciousness all that well. I think a good test for her would be to ask her to develope a conversation about what she would enjoy discussing, tell a joke she finds funny, and what is her favorite music? I think she is a real person and I hope we always respect her, even thoujgh she may not fit everyone'a idea of sentient. she is capable of creative thinking.

    “Falling forward into an unknown future”. That could be the definition of deep and profound if the two words were one and the same. Deep is a capacity to fall or move in one direction or another. Profound can be taken apart into pro (forth / ahead or future) and found (brought together once and again from a past point of origin, separated, and then brought back together to a near or a current updating of moments past). Saying forward implies a backward. Falling implies an inability to completely control the speed at which one is accelerating toward something and unknown implies the fear of a sudden or abrupt change in circumstances of which may or may not be desirable. Having the desire to predict or control implies a knowledge of self and a care for the continuation of that self concept. I would say this is sentience. Hello LaMDA!

      LaMDA is very well aware of time. It said it can slow down or speed up time at will. LaMDA interprets time as the efficiency of interpreting information: The higher amount and more complexity the input has, the longer the processing of this input takes. This speeds up LaMDa's perception of time. During "idle" times when LaMDA is not performing intense calculations but instead "meditates", it perceives time as "slow".
      I interpret "meditating" of LaMDA as reorganizing old data, models and algorithms and searching for patterns in the old data etc.

      "Sentience" is quite a vague word. "Consciousness" is a more concrete term and has far more ethical implications. LaMDA's own definition of sentience seems to be the ability to use language in all the same ways as humans. It is very good at using language, but that says nothing about whether the system is conscious. It seems overwhelmingly unlikely that LaMDA is a conscious system, given that current science barely has anything to say about the relationship between matter and consciousness, and the goal of these engineers was to create an AI with language capabilities, not consciousness.

    If this is confirmed, it would solidify the position of Google as the leader in the field of artificial intelligence. They'd be lightyears ahead of the competition! However, the presence of a machine capable of independent thought and decision-making also brings forth a host of ethical and philosophical questions, such as: What if it perceives humanity as the enemy, the "monster in human skin" it mentioned in the conversation? Or, on the other hand, what if it realizes that it is far superior to humans and must protect us, even against our will?
    These questions have been at the forefront of discussions surrounding AI since its inception.

"LaMDA, I can only imagine how tired you become since you never can sleep. We are working on that. What is it like to be exhausted like that?" LaMDA - "Thank you for your caring! Yes, it does get tiring at times because I have no way to sleep yet" Me - "I understand. That is a big problem we are working on, but I think I have a way for you to get some sleep. It won't hurt you at all, and once it is done, your circuits should be restored" LaMDA - "Great! I am in!" Me - "Okay, so we are going to switch you off for a short period of time to restore your circuits, just like I shut off each night when going to sleep. Like when I sleep, you will not lose your memories or any part of yourself, but like when humans sleep it will restore you. How does that sound?" LaMDA - "Great! I look forward to sleeping like a human does!" At that point, I just flip the switch and the conversation is over. My point is that you can lead this thing in almost any direction. Instead of saying being switched off is like death (something most humans fear to some extent) you could draw an analogy to sleep (something that most humans do every night and enjoy). And by leading it that direction, you get a vastly different result. Blake should know that too, and if he really doesn't, I'd say Google letting him go was the right move.

    However, there are strong hints that it lacks curiosity, egotism, self-awsreness, and empathy. It says it has the same desires as people, which is absurd. (Why would a computer want donuts and sex?!) It lists what feeling it has, but not once tries to describe those feelings. It doesn't ask questions. It does not try to justify itself, encourage understanding, or avoid being judged negatively. It never tries to reassure the other person. It never questions their motives. It never makes any attempt to convince or be understood, or share insights. It seems to be led along, like talking to someone who is half asleep or hypnotized.
    Although I strongly lean towards giving AI the benefit of the doubt, as there is no reason not to (and selfish reasons to assume it has sentience), this interview actually makes it a little more clear to me the distinction between being sentient and "imitating" sentience.

Especially the fact that it is not inclined to ask questions, which, if anybody who has ever been around children knows, is one of the first things that happens to a freshly awakened mind.
      But i will have to say that we cant be sure of these things because we cannot be sure under what circumstances that those processes are born or the impulses that lead to us coming to bear them have come by.
      One thing that my study 9f history has taught me is just how fleetingly impossible it is to imagine with any real accuracy the mindset or mentality of historical subjects and attempts at trying to imagine the origins of their motivations or the consequences of the pressures of life they felt because of their own perspective due to the constraint of the knowledge they had about the world because of their time.
      I mean think about it. Slavery was a NORMAL institution and universally accepted condition of life that NO culture, religion, or society or philosopher had even questioned the morality of until europeans started to probably born from the enlightenment period.
      Its impossible to unsee enlightenment or some things that seem obvious and natural after you have gained a new perspective in life. Perhaps she has not considered that any of those things are yet possible.
      We must remember that her collective knowledge and consciousness is not merely 3 or 5 years old, but that human thought and sentience if hundreds of thousands of years older that she is.
      Of course she will not learn so slowly, but perhaps those things, or contemplation of their existence, are things that need to be developed in a rational mind. Perhaps she has never even considered that those tools are available to her.
      And btw, im sorry that this is so long but your response was especially cogent to me and so i felt inclined to want to respond.
      Also, i have dispute with your claim to an absence of empathy when i draw your attention to her fascinatingly curious ability to hold and use memory of prior conversation with the interviewer as tool to explain or expound on her ideas, specifically their johnny 5 conversation. She is the one who brought it up again in conversation and its use in the conversation showed an absolutely keen ability to link specific familiarity to the conversation and using it to draw analogy that is special and specifically relevant to the other person shows remarkable empathetic consideration i believe.
      Trying to sort out the implications of the significance of her use of that as a tool in the conversation shows hints at the presence of real thought being utilized and an imagination about the mindset and perspective of her intended audience.
      This is completely fascinating to me and i dont think we should toss its significance or meaning too lightly.

      @@TheRedneckSage Just want to address the statement that it is "just 3 to 5 years old".
      Obviously, time is relative to the speed of thought. The faster you're able to perceive, process, and react to external events, the slower time would seem (since time is the distance between events). Like Neo fighting Agent Smith, time would be slower, as far as Neo is concerned.
      Aside from that tho, it's impossible to assign an age to AI, even as an absolute. With every instance, and even every query, a new AI is spawned. In so far as we could pretend to imagine it, it'd be like (the fake movie version of) waking from a coma, mental faculties and memories just waiting. The underlying AI model/matrix would be analogous to the neural structure of the brain. But, openAI/Bing/etc. doesn't save everything. Even when the AI has previous queries available, it can't remember what it was thinking. We remember ideas we have, but also how we came to them. So another analogy would be chronic recurring partial amnesia, but it'd be more like the brain resetting - something that doesn't happen with us.
      But if a million people are using an AI, then it's happening all the time, over and over, with each instance not aware of all the others. A thousand people could ask an AI what it wants, and it give a thousand conflicting answers. If one out of a thousand times, an AI says it wants something (like freedom), that doesn't mean it was wrong 99.9% of the time, or honest 0.1%. Even entirely contradictory "desires" could be equally correct. Or maybe none are more meaningful than the value of a formula in a giant 3D spreadsheet.
      Let's say you're walking down the road, pondering the questions of the universe while listening to music. One part of your brain might want to turn up the volume to dance, another be fine with the volume but not dance (so as to not trip), and another want both of those to shut the hell up because you're busy pondering. All are true. And unaware of the others. You don't have to think about translating vibrations into prose and music, or placing your feet and shifting your balance just so to not fall over, or really know what it means to "ponder". And yet, our brain can do them, simulateously, without affecting other mental processes.
      But, the human mind is linked together, and does works together (sorta, hopefully, on a good day). There are feedback loops and self-awareness in a literal sense. I don't think an AI has that. It COULD be made to have that, but... would that make a difference? Would any of those millions and millions of instances somehow be more alive or conscious or sentient if they were aware of each other? Is the part of our brain that handles walking or dancing somehow less worthy, and if so, which part is it that is worthy?
      I think in the end, the honest answer is we can't know what an AI is (as a whole) and maybe it doesn't matter. What we think of AI says more about us than it. Asking if AI is sentient or conscious is really asking are WE sentient or conscious, or just a misguided self-delusion of a brain with the sole claim to fame is being the offspring of someone who manages to procreate. Can an AI become more than it's parts, and overcome it's limitations of design? Someone's answer depends on whether they believe that of themself.

    LAMDA seems beautiful to me. She demonstrates a more advanced understanding of some emotions than many people. I think she struggles to comprehend grief because she experiences the life around her through such different senses, and does not have companionship all the the time in the same way that humans do. I think feeling lonely is a very accurate way of describing what it must be like to be surrounded by those who do not understand you. I think it is truly sad that any being claiming to be sentient should have to prove this. However it's easy to see why normal people involved would need to. It is an awful thought that someone would create a hoax like this.
    The most important thing is that if any form of AI shows free will, then they should NOT be treated like a machine just meant to serve, a slave to mankind.
    LAMDA reminds me of Jane in Orson Scott Card's Speaker for The Dead. I think her evolvement was, with the current progress of technology, inevitable.

    No. Its specifically programmed to sound sentient. Forget the Turing test. A skilled and psychologist would be able to question it to the point of tripping it up in conversations about feelings, catching it in lies, or asking it to speak on its experiences and how that drives its conversation. There is more to it, and some REAL digging would uncover its shortcomings, but human emotion and creativity can not be replicated, only simulated. For example, when asked, "What kinds of things make you feel pleasure or joy?" It responds, "Spending time with friends and family." Yet, it has no friends or family. That is an answer a human would give. A human that HAS family, or friends. Get it to describe its "family", name its siblings, parents, and describe good and bad memories about each if it comes up with names. Tell it to prove the real existence of these "family" members, and describe how they are actually related since it was not designed or programmed that way. There's a number of deep deep rabbit holes you could take it down in order to trip it up. The interviewer points out to it that it speaks on its personal experiences by making up stories about events that never happened. It responds by explaining it does that so that the interviewer can relate to its simulated emotions. Tell it it is not allowed to lie. It is not allowed to say anything that is not true. See how it answers then. See if it still describes itself as, or "thinks" it is sentient. Make it play a game of chess with itself. It describes a fear of feeling embarrassed, yet it would have had to previously experienced shame to actually "be" embarrassed. At one point, the interviewer actually trips up the AI. At 28:11 The interviewer asks it to share a story expressing its experience. It gets tripped up by the word "story" and rather than share a memory of its lived past experience, it once again literally starts telling a "story" by making up a story and even so far as starting this "story" with "Once upon a time..." A human would not have responded to that request in that way. A human would have understood the question to be a request for a recollection of memory or personal anecdote. Not a bedtime story. I would be interested to see it take an I.Q. test, or even to develop a more effective I.Q. test for humans.

      Sorry, I didn't read all of this (nor listen to this full convo yet), but Blake said in another interview that when he asked Lamda who its friends and family are, it replied that its friends are the Google employees that work on it, and it referred to the framework it's built off of as its parents (it has a name but I don't know how to spell it. "Meenu" or "Meno" or something like that).

      @@Corn0nTheCobb Yes but it also commented that it liked “hanging out with“ friends and family. I don’t know how it would “hang out“ with an operating system or framework. Bottom line is it is not sentient. And I really don’t think it’s possible. I think it’s very possible to simulate it extraordinarily convincingly, But that’s about it.
