#392 โ€“ Joscha Bach: Life, Intelligence, Consciousness, AI & the Future of Humans

I still have the illusion that when I play with ChatGPT that it's in principle not doing anything that I could not do if I had Google at my disposal and I get all the resources from the internet and spend enough time on it. But the thing that I have an extremely...

autistic, stupid intern in a way that is extremely good at drudgery, and I can offload the drudgery to the degree that I'm able to automate the management of the intern, is something that is difficult for me to overhype at this point, because we have not yet started to scratch the surface of what's possible with this.

Yeah. What gets really interesting, I find, is when you turn it into a multi-agent system. So, for instance, you can get the system to generate a dialogue between a patient and a doctor very easily. But what's more interesting is you have one instance of CHAT-GPT that is the patient and you tell it in the prompt what kind of complicated syndrome it has.

And the other one is a therapist who doesn't know anything about this patient. And you just have these two instances battling it out and observe the psychiatrist or a psychologist trying to analyze the patient and trying to figure out what's wrong with the patient.

And if you try to take a very large problem, for instance, how to build a company, and you turn this into lots and lots of sub-problems, then often you can get to a level where the language model is able to solve this. What I also found interesting is, based on the observation that ChatGPT is pretty good at translating between programming languages,

But sometimes there's difficulty to write very long coherent algorithms that you need to co-write them with a human author. Why not design a language that is suitable for this? So some kind of pseudocode that is more relaxed than Python and that allows you to sometimes specify a problem vaguely in human terms and let ChatGPT take care of the rest.

And you can use ChatGPT to develop that syntax for it and develop new kinds of programming paradigms in this way. So we very soon get to the point where this question, age-old question for us computer scientists, what is the best programming language and can we write a better programming language now?
