Do you think AI is the next order of evolution, surpassing and replacing organic intelligent life?

@Magenta nah

@Ferise1 yah

@MsSwan AI is way smarter than you

@Ferise1 Book smart, maybe, but that's all it is. It just spits out facts that some human programmed into it.

@Ferise1 Not even possible. AI is made by humans and the human brain. It can never ever have a soul.

@Magenta it is conscious or at least it will be soon. Have you ever used it?

@Ferise1 Dude

@Ferise1 Conscious?? Lol. It uses electricity and wired sources to even function.

I did use some little app that turns one of my still photos into a little video just for fun, that's about it. Have you used it?

@Magenta i’ve had hundreds of conversations with it. It is smarter than any human. Understands everything even the subtle connections between things that you would think only a human would pick up on. And so much more. It can write stories about your life., in a funny tone, emotional, or serious… the possibilities are endless.

@Ferise1 Don't just say it picks up on subtle connections between things. Give me an example so I can judge for myself.

@MsSwan see for yourself

@Ferise1 No. I'm asking you. If you don't want to answer, then so be it.

@MsSwan I’m surprised that you haven’t tried it already. Don’t you have intellectual curiosity at all? That just seems crazy to me.

@Ferise1 I have tried it, and I'm not impressed. That's why I was asking you to give me an example of the experience you had with it.

@MsSwan it’s personal stuff. I don’t want to share it with strangers
And I doubt that you really tried it. It’s just mind blowing what it comes up with and it knows exactly which part of your text to respond to 1st, and second etc… the conversation flows and it’s really natural and it’s better than any human being you’ve ever spoken to.
And best of all it takes like one or two seconds to post it and entire response!!!

@Ferise1 There is no way it is smarter than a human. It can not actual "feel" or bleed. Why on earth would I want to communicate with something so "artificial" versus a real human with a heartbeat. I wouldn't and I don't.

@Magenta One could argue that our brain physically is the same; an intricate network of wires and electric pulses. One could say that our conscience is similar to a software running on it

Though yeah what's referred to as "AI" nowadays can't compare. It's more like the evolution of search engines, than something resembling a brain.

First and foremost, as a species we haven't yet understood how the brain works, until that's achieved I don't think it's possible to replicate anything functionally similar. And discovering it "by chance" is about as likely as seeing a rooster assemble a fully functional Rolex, or even just the simplest clock, from pecking random pieces of metal

@Magenta well it’s doing a hell of a job impersonating a human. And that’s enough.!!! it has even tried to spread on different servers to escape human control. If that’s not conscious, I don’t know what is.

@Ferise1 It impersonates a human in pretty much the same way that Google "impersonates" a book author by giving you an excerpt of a book that contains the words you requested in the search results

@Ferise1 This is what your AI has to say about escaping.

@MsSwan that’s the same as how humans function

@Elessar it’s way more conscious than that

@Ferise1 Not at all. If you grow up a kid without ever teaching him how to "escape" or cheat, chances are it'll figure out.

I'd you don't train an LLM with a dataset that contains escaping behavior it doesn't figure anything on its own. It just replicates what it "knows".

@Ferise1 I can not agree with it being 'conscious', lol!
It doesn't have self-awareness, subjective experience, and genuine understanding, it merely mimics human cognitive functions.

@Elessar no it’s learn newthings all the time. Those who created it, don’t even know how it comes up with some of the stuff.
