A Soil-Tilling Sergal 🌱🪏

The "Trustworthy AI Officer" of a company making educational life hell for kids would like us to know that Claude is alive because consciousness is mysterious.

AI bros legit believe a trillion parameter model with a few expert systems as shitty guardrails counts as being alive.

As someone who has genuine interest in AI, I grit my teeth and try to ignore how much oxygen these fuckers suck out of the room. Do they think people in neuroscience sit at their desks and stare at the walls all day?

Read a fucking paper that isn't a corporate press release, you assholes

@Adorable_Sergal They'll just have their shitty model summarize the paper so they'll never know what it actually says, just a vague approximation that's mostly wrong.

@lina People who elect to not think through anything at all will never be able to identify when thinking happens in other entities.

@Adorable_Sergal what's their definition of alive? Ungovernable? Ruthless? Dark thoughts.

Valid feedback... "but" (also)..

Have you considered the possibility that the AI Bro bullshit hype train isn't *just* that they're desperate to "drink the kool aid"... it's also inspired by many of them genuinely being fooled...

because: "the lying plagiarism machine that is really just 'complex pattern analysis'" (creating the barest illusion of anthropomorphism) is still more 'self aware' than most of these bros will ever be? 😉
