Oh, yeah, I love her book.
Oh, yeah, because the transcripts that the engineer released, Lambda kind of talks about the experience of
human-like feelings and I think even consciousness.
And so she was like, oh, cool, that's impressive.
I wonder if an AI can also describe the experience of being a squirrel.
And so she interviewed, I think she did GPT-3 about the experience of being a squirrel.
And then she did a bunch of other ones too, like, what's it like being a flock of crows?
What's it like being an algorithm that powers a Roomba?
And like...
You can have a conversation about any of those things and they're very convincing.
Yeah.
What do you say to people who don't believe you're a squirrel?
I say, come see for yourselves.
I am a squirrel.
I think it's really great because the two things to note about it are, first of all, just because the machine is describing an experience doesn't mean it actually has that experience.
But then secondly, these things are getting so advanced and so convincing at describing these things and talking to people.
That's, I mean, just the implications for health, education, communication, entertainment, gaming.
Like, I just, like, all of the applications, it's mind-boggling what we're going to be able to do with this.
And that my kids are not going to remember a time before they could have conversations with artificial agents.
Yeah, I think that's true.
