While GPT/AI/ML chatbots are all the rage, might I remind an older fact-check I wrote about whether or not GPT-3 is "conscious":
https://tecc.media/claim-gpt3-is-conscious/
> Ascribing any meaningful form of subjective experience or awareness to GPT-3 remains a stretch, to say the least.
>Saying that GPT-3 is conscious because it can generate text that looks like it is human-written, is like saying a large screen TV is a window because it can show images of the great outdoors.
@robryk MIcrosoft GitHub Copilot is mathwashing of copyright infringement, for example.
"We totally are not copying your code! No, no, we just trained our model on it, and it *happens* to generate similar stuff. Totally different! Not infringement!"
