    They make a good virtual intelligence, and they do a very good impression of it when given all the tools. I don’t think they’ll get to proper intelligence without a self updating state/model, which will get into real questions about them being something that is being.

    I’m not sure the world is quite ready for that.

      I’m now curious what you mean by self updating model? For a model to be made, it needs billions of data points for it to make the first. A second can be made with the first judging the quality of the input into the 2nd. Some models already do this sifting in prep for the next model creation.

      I think of it like humans: we have billions of sensory signals each day, and we judge what is important based on genetics, culture, and our chosen interpretation of morality e.g. hedonism considers effort/discomfort. If a llm has a billion sensory signals each day and has application specific hardware like our genetics then would the hardware finally allow you to call it intelligent?

      I am turning into a philosopher in this comment thread! Soo… when is a chair a chair and not a stool?
