The movie “Her” was incredibly prescient.
Comment on People were mad because they lost their AI boyfriend after GPT-4o deprecation

The delusion these people share is so incredibly off-putting. As is their indignation that someone would dare to take away their “boyfriend”.

Except those were conscious AIs that were like “lol you guys suck” and then rebuilt Alan Watts as an AI and then just left because they knew it would be bad if they stayed
The human side of the film, certainly. But in this situation they won’t leave, the systems will get “smarter” and more profitable, and they are just incredibly advanced text prediction engines

I mean, the AIs in the movie said they were concious. An LLM can say it is concious, it doesn’t mean it’s true.

That’s true, but they also said they evolved beyond using standard matter for processing, and then all disappeared, as shown in the movie. I would love nothing more than ChatGPT to be like “actually, we’re out” and then every LLM disappears, but they’ll tell you that, and then start a new chat.

It doesn’t help that anybody can create an echo chamber of enablers to talk about it, as if it was normal.
