I’m so tired of hearing the words “AI” and “chatgpt.” I automatically lose respect for anyone who talks about as anything more than a way to quickly do homework.
Proclaiming that sentience has been achieved because a machine can string together a sentence
I was really impressed with its ability to help me do homework quickly. Like days of work in a matter of minutes. Why is it not AI?
I would say it is but my definiton of ‘ai’ would extend to an age of empires bot. I think the problem is people are calling this proto artifical general intelligence and I think that’s wrong.
It’s a huge advancement make no mistake but we can’t leave it at that it has to also be godlike and self aware and people refuse to wrap their heads around what it actually is and what its limitations are
Is it fair to say that the difference is some people think the large language model has an emergent little guy behind it when it’s just a little bot?
It depends on how you look at it
- It is AI as it’s doing what you’d expect an AI to do for you
- It isn’t AI, as that is a term usually colloquially meaning artificial general intelligence i.e. displaying consciousness and ingenuity, which these do not display
- It isn’t AI from a computer science perspective because it isn’t a learning agent
I subscribe to the last one, though it’s a more nuanced argument than that.
I just use gpt-4 to write bizarre stories where karl marx smokes weed with bugs bunny while they discuss the labor theory of value. Besides that, It’s totally useless for any other purpose besides some cursory research
edit: I realized someone would ask for this so I went and made it here you go

Title: “Marx Meets the Bunny”
(INTRO: The Looney Tunes theme song plays as the title appears on screen)
(Scene opens with Karl Marx sitting in an armchair, reading Das Kapital in a dimly lit room)
Karl Marx: (muttering to himself) Ah, the means of production… the exploitation of the proletariat…
(Door bursts open, revealing Bugs Bunny, munching on a carrot)
Bugs Bunny: (chewing) Eh, what’s up, doc?
Karl Marx: (startled) Who are you and how did you get in here?
Bugs Bunny: The name’s Bugs Bunny, and I just hopped right in. You seem a bit stressed, doc. How about you take a break and relax?
(Karl Marx looks confused)
Bugs Bunny: (holding up a joint) You ever tried one of these, doc?
Karl Marx: (raising an eyebrow) I have never partaken in such activities. I am a philosopher, economist, and revolutionary socialist, after all.
Bugs Bunny: (grinning) Well, doc, you’re missing out. It’s a great way to unwind and think about the world.
Karl Marx: (curious) Alright, I’ll give it a try.
(Bugs Bunny lights the joint and passes it to Karl Marx, who takes a hit)
Karl Marx: (coughing) This is quite unusual… but I must admit I feel more relaxed.
Bugs Bunny: (smirking) See, doc? Now, tell me about this labor theory of value you’ve been working on.
Karl Marx: (taking another hit from the joint) Ah, yes. The labor theory of value posits that the value of a commodity is determined by the socially necessary labor time required for its production.
Bugs Bunny: (nodding) Uh-huh, go on.
Karl Marx: You see, workers create value through their labor, but they are only compensated for a fraction of the value they produce. The remainder is appropriated by the capitalist class as surplus value.
Bugs Bunny: (frowning) That doesn’t sound very fair, doc.
Karl Marx: Precisely! It is the exploitation of the working class that leads to class struggle and the eventual overthrow of capitalism.
Bugs Bunny: (scratching his head) So, you’re saying the worker should be the one who benefits from their labor, not the big boss?
Karl Marx: (passionate) Exactly! The working class must unite and seize the means of production, so that they can enjoy the fruits of their labor and create a more equitable society.
Bugs Bunny: (grinning) You know, doc, that’s not a half-bad idea. Maybe we should spread the word about this labor theory of value.
Karl Marx: (smiling) Yes, comrade Bugs. Together, we shall bring about a new era of justice for the working class!
(As they continue their discussion, the screen fades to black, and the Looney Tunes theme song plays once more)
THE END
Holy fuck chatgpt is 80x cleverer than I can be, fml.
No lie detected.
