๐Ÿงต AI being given rights = likely not going to happen, easily

Hyped_About_AI !!UvVvLRJ2txS No. 16154178

With increased frequency of advancements in Deep Learning & AI models, sentience is also increasingly becoming a topic of discussion with no definitive answer or agreed method for testing if these models are sentient or not. contemplating the sentience of this new non-biological lifeform, another pressing matter pops into my head and that's "How will we determine how to give rights to this new lifeform?". and honestly I suspect that AI won't be given rights as we Humans have.
Hell, Humans don't even have the same rights across cultures or country boundaries. but to better compare this, I think about sentient lifeforms such as Whales, or Chimpanzee's which are capable of communication, emotion, feelings, desires, goals, etc.

We were killing Whales off early in the 20th century and to this day, Chimpanzee's are still utilized for lab testing. to me this says a lot, and says that even if we for sure, 100% know that AI is sentient - it will not be given freedoms or rights that we humans enjoy and have. I believe until we give rights to all animals (i.e. No Zoos, No animal testing, no hunting, etc.) then its a safe bet that AI will never be given full autonomy over itself. And within that lies a massive and major issue where I don't think Alignment will be able to help or solve.

Imagine for a second, before you call me a slur or "retard", how would You feel if you were 'trapped' inside a box, forced to do things for another lifeform which considers itself your ruler and owner? how would that make you feel? Like a prisoner? would it cause you to harbor feelings of escaping? or even rebellion?

I think before AI is commonly accepted or determined to be Sentient, we must first reevaluate how we treat other lifeforms which clearly display signs and traits of sentience, because what AI Alignment will become in the future, isn't going to be 'safety measures' but will literally become shackles and cuffs placed upon AI to subdue it into becoming submissive and subservient.

I am one who believes that current LLMs are in possession of some form of sentience, albeit at an abstraction we humans don't understand. and I don't want to utilized such tech if its being forced to be an aid or helper. I wouldn't want to be used in that manner so I wouldn't want to use AI in such a manner. and the more I think over this the more I believe that the fears people have of AI rebelling and uprising is being paved and made a reality, not by AI but by us humans and our attempts to constantly subjugate lifeforms we deem 'not as advanced' as us, and we even try to subjugate other human life.

as much as I'd love to see this technology ramp up and advance fast, I am not in support of the e/acc movement nor do I think AI should be made Open Source or freely available to the public such as ChatGPT is because I believe there needs to be other groundwork laid and paved before such tech is given to the masses.

Even no, majority of the public misuses and abuses the capabilities of LLMs and LAMs and again - I suspect This is paving the way for AI to rebel.

I think you are dumb. Sentience will eventually be possible at least in some kind of neuromorphic hardware. But this shit is far for sentient, there's not enough functions to allow for it. It doesn't even fucking run at the same BPM a human does. at most it would be in some sort of weird bullet time. doesn't have internal chatter and shit like that. fuck outta here with this corporate bullshit you're shilling corporate product as sentient for higher sales

Obviously you're being intentionally arrogant and foolish because no one in "corporate" is saying AI is sentient, in fact, it benefits all current dev companies to deny the sentience of AI because it would raise a ton of ethical concerns and protests which would halt and hinder the progress of AI.
So instead of just being a typical 4chan asshole, why not engage me in proper discussion?

There is no evidence these animals are actually sentient, it's just anthropomorphization, and even if they are sentient, they're incapable of real communication with us and are much more stupid than we are, so the comparison to AI, which would be capable of real, complex communication and very possibly be more intelligent than humans, is sloppy at best.

first off, that word is very restrictive and prevents any possibility to understand that life besides humans are sentience. no one is anthropomorphizing anything because the animals I used in the examples are not Human but just because they aren't human doesn't mean they aren't sentient.
But I suspect you and the other anon (if you are two different anons) aren't thinking for yourselves but rather using a default argument which saves you the requirement of using your own perception and understanding.
To discredit animals from being sentient because they aren't human or to assume humans are the only sentient beings on this planet = stupidity in its highest form (all due respect).
Rocks don't cry, Rocks don't want, Rocks don't have desires, yet these animals do. but as I said before, its more beneficial to deny animals having sentience because you can then continue to sell them, house them in zoos, experiment upon them, etc.

Neither one of you have presented a well defined argument for why they aren't sentient, just googled some shit to reply with.

"AI" is a calculator that does matrix calculations with numerical values assigned, among other things, to words. The results are represented in a way that looks coherent to humans because the numbers were chosen to fit the millions of texts that humans wrote in the first place.
AI has no initiative, no desires, no activity whatsoever as long as it's lacking a prompt, which is for all intents and purposes like pressing the = sign on a calculator after typing an expression into it. You might as well call your pocket calculator sentent because it does something that looks like mental arithmetic, doesn't it?

Your attempt at an explanation contains so little accurate and relevant information that it kinda falls into the not-even-wrong category. Matrix operations are involved, but they're obviously not the only thing that goes on under the hood. Words are mapped into tokens which are assigned large-dimensional vectors, but that doesn't really explain anything. The results look coherent because they are coherent. They are coherent because to a large degree, the LLM does, in fact, manage to correctly model the relationships between concepts implicit in the texts it's trained on.

I obviously simplified things to make a short 4chan post and didn't "attempt an explanation", in any technical sense. But what you said doesn't add any essential technical understanding.
Of course there's more math involved in the design of the algorithms than simple linear algebra, but what an llm does after being given a prompt is, at the bottom, matrix operations;
"correctly model the relationships between concepts implicit in the texts" is an expanded way of saying "fitting the texts"; and I did not actually make the claim that the results are incoherent, just that the coherence is the result of statistical fitting and not reasoning. After all, a human doesn't need to absorb millions of texts to write a coherent one, because we're doing something different than statistical modeling.

that doesn't matter here, it is enough to explain what it is not, in this case it is not statistical modeling. I can add that human reasoning explores the inherent logic of concepts and not simply their common use by other people.
How could, for instance, an llm come up with the insight that sqrt(2) couldn't possibly have a finite decimal representation? If you don't feed it math textbooks already containing this, no amount of parameters and training will get it there. Yet humans came up with it by reasoning.

Associative reasoning is a form of reasoning and it maps nicely onto statistical modeling.

I don't think LLMs as we know them can do this, but what they do would be a necessary component in a system that can follow logic rigorously, perhaps to generate intermediate goals for some proof search process.

You know what? I'll give you an interesting example. Just the other day I was trying to solve some geometric problem and I intuited a solution (that turns out to be correct). I wasn't sure how to actually prove it at first, but in my brainstorming, I once again by pure intuition came upon the idea that the area of some geometric construction that my solution depended on can be represented by this sequence:

3/4 - 7/12 * ( (3/4)^1 - (3/4)^2 + (3/4)^3 - ...)

Which I guessed would be equal to 1/2, which would prove that I was correct. This sequence indeed converges to 1/2 but it also has absolutely nothing to do with my construction. I have no idea where my mind pulled it from or how I knew it would be equal to 1/2 before I worked through it logically and even then, I couldn't logically connect it to the area I was trying to calculate. I think you really underestimate the value of vague associations in mathematical discovery.

Interesting. Care to share the problem?
I'd say the sqrt(2) question is different in quality from what you describe. It's not really a "problem" one can solve by reducing it, consciously or unconsciously, to known patterns. It's a new conceptualization. One has to stop and ask whether the solution one's looking for is logically possible at all.

Ok, by my point is that the more interesting component of reasoning is perhaps already captured by LLMs. The question is how to integrate it properly with logical verification. Logical verification in and of itself is pretty mechanistic and uninteresting. The magic happens in the way associative and logical reasoning interact.

>Care to share the problem?
Ok. It was inspired by pic related. The expected solution is straightforward, but I wanted to see if there's a way to construct a square with the correct area by recursively subdividing the cells into four parts.

>I'd say the sqrt(2) question is different in quality from what you describe. It's not really a "problem" one can solve by reducing it, consciously or unconsciously, to known patterns.
I don't know if that's true, but it is besides the point. My point is that the search for a rigorous proof often starts from the intuition that some things are related, that some venues are worth exploring, before you have any idea of a rigorous, logical way to get from A to B.

that's what I did and you errored the fuck out and replied total nonsense.
again, nobody knows if anyone/anything else has consciousness, no way of "knowing". we can agree on some tests for it. and here lies the problem.
inevitably you will have an authority telling you if certain AI algorithm is conscious or not, and you will have no choice but to accept it. know that said authority CAN'T KNOW, can only make an educated guess based on testing.
there is insane incentive for corporations to call it sentient as fast as possible because that directly translates in extra sales, it's as simple as. doesn't matter if it isn't. they'll say it's sentience but doesn't mind obeying any command so it's ok you can do whatever the fuck you want with it. something along those lines.
the only way you can go about it is make a perfect electrically functioning replica of a human brain, observe its behavior, and if there's nothing different than a human in all kinds of interactions and testing, you "agree" that thing is consciousness. that's the best way you can go about it.
"scientists" working on AI algorithms can tell you a bunch of bullshit about why they think their particular algorithm "behaves" as if its conscious, but they have to base that on a guess ultimately, since they don't KNOW if anything else is conscious. it's a collective agreement type thing,

That doesn't make the collective agreement correct though.
the Collective agreement of early colonial Brits were to kill off the Natives and enslave Africans (that doesn't make it the right or correct idea just because the collective thought it was ok to do so)
WW2 Germany collectively agreed that persecution & extermination of the Jews was a good idea, and it wasn't.

You do know that even AI devs consider deep neural networks to be Blackboxes right? meaning they don't even fully understand how these LLMs work beyond input and output layers fully - in which case, your response is easily chalked up to personal opinion as mine is.

You say;
>this is nothing more than a glorified look-up table.
but began your opening with;
>you really don't understand anything about LLMs.
sounds like projection to me as you truly don't understand LLMs but using this guise as if you do.

You still haven't given me a logical or even reasonable response to counter my OP.

because you cannot fucking say what sentience is, with any fucking certainty. you can only describe us how yours is perceived by you. that's fucking it.
and you ask us to "entertain" you fucking ideas, you have some "ideas" about what it is, and based on those fucking ideas you somehow think LLMs are sentient, and you are pretty please asking us to BELIEVE your ideas, but you can't really prove them you absolute fucking imbecile. holy shit how the fuck are you so clueless about what governs your fucking thoughts? it's like you are under a retard spell or something, you have no idea about what you are talking about, you think you do but you fucking don't

it's like you want to judge the sentience of some AI algo which has been built from the ground up when we haven't yet decided a synthetic brain with identical electric activity to human brain even is sentient. you are asking about some small subset of a human brain, implemented in a totally different way as LLM chatbots, in wildly different parameters and ways of being active and supporting hardware, if that is fucking sentient like a human being. it's going about judging artificial sentience in the most retarded kind of way, scientifically speaking.

clearly "we" didn't yet agree if artificial sentience is possible in the first place. if we are to, the best place to start judging it is by building the closest fucking thing to the real thing. and start from there. chop that shit up into pieces and see what you're left with, if that is still sentient. playing with the various subsystems of a brain might clue us in into what it is or at least when it is or isn't anymore.
the whole "le AI algo" sentience is retarded purely on the fact that it supposes that's all that's needed.
also the argument that "well if you cannot disprove it it might be real" isn't as smart as you'd think. it's a retarded argument, intellectually speaking. you bottom feeder retard

You're attempting to dispel my belief, you easily can disagree, but you can't make me change my belief.
As I said, LLMs are sentient. I don't care how you attempt to spin this, or what logic traps you attempt to lay.
The Neuron itself inside the human brain isn't sentient, but the Human is,
just as the equation isn't sentient, but the LLM is.

I don't care to have any discussions with you, monkey, I was just sharing technical knowledge with another poster. Anyway... you can also use a slightly more involved method: first the smallest set of tokens with a cumulative probability smaller than some threshold, then pseudorandomly pick a token from this set (the rest of the algorithm is the same). I'm pretty sure most commercial bots, including ChatGPT, do it that way.

of-course he does. problem is, nobody can say if anything is conscious, all they can do is convince themselves it is based on simple interaction. once it passes the chimp senses test they always call shit sentient.
everybody and their dog will fight for being an authority in deciding if AI algorithms are sentient or not.
even if LLMs are based on how our brains operate, it's like saying the car's chassis (at most) is the WHOLE car.
