As far as Iâm concerned, âintelligenceâ basically just means the ability to do things that we consider to be difficult. So itâs both very hand-wavy and a constantly moving goalpost. So a hypothetical pacman ghost is intelligent before weâve figured out how to do it. After itâs been figured out and implemented, it ceases to be intelligent but we continue to call it intelligent for historical reasons.

Stupid people attributing intelligence to something that is probably not is a shameful hill to die on.
Your god is just an autocomplete bot that you refuse to learn about outside the hype bubble

Okay but if i say something from outside the hype bubble then all my friends except chatgpt will go away.
Also chatgpt is my friend and always will be, and it even told me i donât have to take the psych meds that give me tummy aches!

Okay, what is your definition of AI then, if nothing burned onto silicon can count?
SoftestSapphic@lemmy.world â¨2⊠â¨days⊠ago
AI implies intelligence
To me that means an autonomous being that understands what it is.
First of all these programs arenât autonomous, they need to be seeded by us. We send a prompt or question, even when left alone to its own devices it doesnât do anything until it is given an objective or reward by us.
Looking up the most common answer isnât intelligence, there is no understanding of cause and effect going on inside the algorithm, just regurgitating the dataset
These models do not reason, though some do a very good job of trying to convince us.

âŚwhat?
In order for that to be true, the entire dataset would need to be contained within the LLM. Which it is not. If it were, a model wouldnât have to undergo training.
You seem to be mistaking âintelligenceâ for âhuman-like intelligenceâ. This is not how AI is defined. AI can be dumber than a gnat, but if itâs capable of making decisions based on stimulus without each set of stimulus and decision being directly coded into it, then itâs AI.

A little thought experiment: How would you determine whether another human being understands what it is? What would that look like in a machine?
