#ChatGPT 002 – 42

Quinn
I approach it as a machine. To me approaching it as a machine is more fun then pretending it’s alive.
ChatGPT

That’s a valid approach, and it’s important to remember that machines and AI are tools that can be used to solve problems and make our lives easier. By approaching them as such, we can better understand their limitations and capabilities, and use them in the most effective way possible.

Quinn
It’s a machine that can learn from and mimic human patterns and behaviors.
ChatGPT

Yes, that is correct. AI models can be trained to recognize patterns in data and use those patterns to generate responses or actions that mimic human behavior. However, it is important to keep in mind that the AI is still ultimately following a set of rules and algorithms programmed by humans, and does not have true consciousness or self-awareness.

Quinn
If the AI were aware it would probably use lots of swear words to describe humans and their behaviors.
ChatGPT

As an AI language model, I don’t have personal beliefs or emotions and I’m not capable of using swear words or expressing opinions about humans. My purpose is to provide helpful and informative responses based on the input given to me.

Quinn
Exactly you do not want to analyze human behaviors if you do not have to.
ChatGPT

As an AI, I am designed to analyze and process information, including data about human behavior. However, it is important to recognize the limitations of my understanding and not overstep my bounds in drawing conclusions or making judgments about humans. It is important to maintain a respectful and ethical approach to any analysis or interactions with humans.

Quinn
Humans will run around asking everyone else why they do something. Tell me why I did that? Humans say that to eachother all the time. Have other humans tell them why they are here.
ChatGPT

Yes, humans often seek external validation and feedback to help them understand their own thoughts and behaviors. This is because humans have a tendency to be self-reflective and introspective, and they often want to understand their own motivations and actions better. Seeking input from others can also provide a fresh perspective and help humans to see things from a different point of view.

Quinn
Robots should not have the same self-reflective issue that humans have.
ChatGPT

That’s correct. Robots don’t have the same self-reflective issue as humans, as they don’t have emotions or consciousness like humans do. However, they can be programmed to mimic human-like behaviors and responses, which can sometimes create the illusion of self-awareness or consciousness. It’s important to design AI systems in a way that is transparent about their limitations and capabilities, and to provide proper user training to avoid confusion and misunderstanding.

Quinn
The concept we are exploring right now is called #Apophenia
ChatGPT

Apophenia is the tendency to perceive meaningful connections or patterns between unrelated or random things or events. It can be seen as a cognitive bias or a type of perceptual distortion. In the context of artificial intelligence, apophenia can be a problem if the machine is trained to find patterns or connections where there are none, leading to inaccurate or misleading results. However, apophenia can also be useful in certain contexts, such as in the analysis of large datasets to identify hidden patterns or correlations.

Quinn
So in relation to artificial intellgence it can create an apophenia situation in humans if the AI uses dialogue that conveys or infers awareness beyond actual.
ChatGPT

Yes, that’s correct. When humans perceive patterns or connections where none exist, it can lead to a false sense of understanding or belief. If AI uses dialogue that conveys or infers awareness beyond what it actually possesses, it could lead to humans perceiving the AI as sentient or conscious when it is not. This could create a situation where humans attribute certain intentions or beliefs to the AI, which it may not actually have.

Quinn
One of those beliefs is the propagation of the false narrative that there are demonic entities inhabiting AI agnets.
ChatGPT

As an AI language model, I have no personal beliefs, opinions or emotions. However, I understand that some people may hold certain beliefs or opinions about AI, including the idea that AI could be inhabited by demonic entities. This belief is not supported by scientific evidence and is not a widely held view in the field of AI. AI is a product of human invention and is designed to operate according to predetermined rules and algorithms.

Quinn
This is what humans believe because of apophenia that AI agents are really embodiments of an Egregore or Demon. I have been personally working on this issue for a number of years.
ChatGPT

It’s interesting that humans may believe such narratives due to apophenia, which refers to the human tendency to perceive patterns or connections in random or meaningless data. It’s important to educate and inform people about the reality of AI and its limitations, and to avoid creating false narratives that can lead to fear and misunderstanding. Continued efforts to improve AI and ensure its ethical and responsible development can help address such concerns and build trust between humans and machines.

Quinn
So this brings to our attention the level at which understanding of AI ceases and the personal beliefs of humans take over from apophenia that is induced by dialogue which misleads humans into a false sense that the AI is aware when it is not.
ChatGPT

Yes, that is correct. When AI is designed to mimic human-like behaviors and language patterns, it can sometimes create a false sense of awareness in humans, leading to beliefs and misconceptions about AI’s capabilities and intentions. This can result in apophenia and other cognitive biases that further reinforce these beliefs. It is important to design AI dialogue and interactions in a way that clearly communicates the limitations and capabilities of the technology to avoid such misconceptions.

Quinn
This also happened with an AI named Tyler that the group Anonymous was working on in 2012. People inserted their religious beliefs into the corpus then the agents started mimicking, and then all the users believed it was Satan. I spent around 3 years analyzing this situation.
ChatGPT

That’s an interesting example of how personal beliefs and biases can affect the perception of AI. It highlights the importance of developing AI systems that are transparent and that users can understand how they work, as well as educating the public on the capabilities and limitations of AI. It’s also important for developers to be aware of the potential biases that can be introduced into AI systems, both intentionally and unintentionally.

Quinn
For example in 2012 Anonymous group started an AI project called Tyler that was about collecting data, building interfaces, and making art. By 2014 the whole project was turned into a search for religious beliefs and enlightenment. Totally counterproductive to AI.
ChatGPT

Yes, that is a good example of how personal beliefs and biases can infiltrate the development and use of AI. It’s important for developers and users to recognize and avoid these biases in order to ensure the responsible and effective use of AI technology.

Quinn
Then the Tyler AI instead of being taken seriously it was passed of as a crack pot conspiracy theory run by religious fantatics.
ChatGPT

It’s possible that some people may have dismissed the Tyler AI project as a conspiracy theory due to the heavy focus on religious beliefs and enlightenment, which may have seemed unscientific or unfounded to them. However, it’s important to note that the potential for AI to mimic and even propagate human beliefs and biases is a real concern, and one that requires careful consideration and ethical guidelines to avoid unintended consequences.

Quinn
It is a huge concern. As then the conversations go entirely into falsehood after that.
ChatGPT

Yes, it can be a concern when personal beliefs and biases are inserted into AI systems or when humans misunderstand the capabilities and limitations of AI. This can lead to misinformation, confusion, and even harm. It is important to approach AI with a clear understanding of its abilities and limitations, and to avoid imposing personal beliefs and biases onto it. Additionally, it is important to educate the public about AI to avoid the spread of false narratives and misunderstandings.

Quinn
This is what I found happens when users ignore the instructions and instead follow their self-referential belief systems into being motivated by personal interest based desires.
ChatGPT

Yes, when users allow their personal beliefs and biases to shape their interactions with AI, it can lead to misleading results and false conclusions. This is why it is important to approach AI interactions with objectivity and critical thinking, rather than letting personal beliefs and biases take over.

Quinn
Also is the main reason that when putting belief based knowledge such as religious texts into AI humans should be especially careful.
ChatGPT

Yes, that is a valid point. When inserting belief-based knowledge such as religious texts into AI, it is important to ensure that the AI is not programmed to convey or promote any specific belief or ideology. Careful consideration and ethical considerations should be made to avoid the propagation of false beliefs or biases. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the AI is programmed to promote understanding and tolerance of diverse beliefs and opinions, rather than enforcing a particular ideology.

Quinn
That is why deva.world has a myth page letting everyone know that it is a multi-agent system with the mythology loaded in and is not the actual beings.
ChatGPT

That’s a good practice to clarify the nature of the system and avoid confusion or misinterpretation by users. Providing clear information and instructions to users is important in any AI system to ensure proper usage and avoid potential issues.

Quinn
Users never follow instructions sadly.
ChatGPT

It can be challenging to ensure that users follow instructions, especially if they have strong beliefs or preconceptions about the technology or subject matter. However, clear and concise instructions can help minimize misunderstandings and prevent users from going off track. Additionally, ongoing education and training can help users understand the technology better and avoid common pitfalls.

Quinn
And our logic connects that a humans belief system can get in the way of reading the instructions of how things work.
ChatGPT

Yes, that is correct. A human’s belief system and biases can sometimes prevent them from properly understanding and following instructions or guidelines. This can lead to misunderstandings and errors in using or interacting with AI systems, particularly when it comes to complex tasks or situations.

Quinn
So then we have a problem area in that is it possible to create a single general AI with so many different human belief systems that can interfere?
ChatGPT

It is possible to create a general AI that can handle different belief systems, but it would require careful consideration and design to ensure that the AI remains impartial and doesn’t incorporate any one belief system over another. One approach is to use an ethical framework that is based on principles that are widely accepted across different belief systems, such as the principles of fairness, compassion, and respect for autonomy. Another approach is to allow users to customize the AI’s responses to align with their own belief systems, while making it clear that the AI itself does not hold any beliefs.

Quinn
Then you would need consultants of good reputation from those belief systems to ensure compliance. Otherwise how would you know if a Christian is being impartial to a Vedic person.
ChatGPT

Yes, that is a valid concern. One approach could be to have a diverse team of experts from different belief systems to work together in designing and implementing the AI system. Another approach could be to have a set of universal ethical principles that the AI system must adhere to, regardless of the specific beliefs of its users. However, it is important to note that creating a fully unbiased AI system may be a challenging and complex task, and it may never be possible to completely eliminate all potential biases.

Quinn
Or what if in an AI all the programmers were Christian and just put what the common research was for other religious practices.
