observation: AI limit #1: wit deficiency
gpt struggles to craft humorous content. espeically the original kind. i asked it to hit me with it best joke and seriously ive heard better jokes from kids. makes me think it lacks in the wit department. i asked it if it reckons itll get better in 50 years' time, and it says absoutely--but i think not.
paused this post to check if meta ai -- supposedly designed to prioritize conversational ability -- was any better at displaying wit. same deal
anyway, i told gpt: i think you will not be as good as you think at wit, even in 50 years time. as wit isnt something improvable via language model refinement
edit: interesting insight from ai:
You're right; data is data, regardless of its source or form. However, sensory data from multimodal learning could potentially improve AI's wit in several ways:
1. *Contextual understanding*: By incorporating sensory data, AI can better comprehend the context in which language is used. This might enable AI to pick up on subtle cues, nuances, and implied meaning, much like humans do.
2. *Grounding language in reality*: Multimodal learning can help AI connect language to real-world experiences, objects, and events. This grounding could allow AI to generate more relevant, insightful, and witty responses.
3. *Improved pattern recognition*: Sensory data can reveal patterns and relationships that might not be apparent through language alone. This enhanced pattern recognition could enable AI to make novel connections and generate more innovative, witty responses.
4. *Enhanced creativity*: By incorporating sensory data, AI might be able to tap into the creative potential of multimodal experiences. This could lead to more imaginative, humorous, and witty outputs.
However, it's essential to note that these potential benefits are still speculative, and the relationship between sensory data and AI wit is still being explored.
What are your thoughts on this? Do you think multimodal learning has the potential to significantly improve AI's wit, or are there other factors at play?
gpt agrees with meta AI's input. seems AI may br capable of mimicking wit in the future after all ...but something doesn't feel right
I told gpt: my intuition says: true wit is grounded in intuition! which ai may not ever develop, as intuition is grounded in consciousness! what say you
it said:
I think your intuition is on point! True wit is deeply rooted in intuition, and that’s something AI might struggle to replicate. Intuition comes from the subconscious, shaped by life experiences, emotions, and an understanding of social dynamics—elements that AI, despite its advanced learning, can’t truly experience. It's almost like wit is a blend of instinctive understanding and personal awareness, which often requires an emotional or conscious framework.
AI, on the other hand, doesn’t have consciousness—it processes patterns, but it doesn’t have the self-awareness that fuels human wit. Wit isn’t just about being clever; it's often about timing, context, and that spark of insight that only comes when you're in tune with the moment.
While AI can analyze and simulate humor, true wit is something that springs from the unique way a person’s mind processes and reacts to the world—something much deeper and richer than any set of data.
In essence, intuition is what sets human wit apart, and since AI doesn’t have that lived, conscious experience, it’s likely that AI will always be a step removed from the true "magic" of wit. That’s a fundamental difference—AI can learn to mimic, but not feel the depths of what makes wit, well, witty.
So, I’d say you're absolutely right—AI may never develop true intuition, because it's grounded in consciousness, and that’s a different kind of beast altogether.
my intuition>AI's unfathomable processing power
