Background: - google software engineer says LaMDA has achieved sentience - on Monday google places him on admin leave - on Thursday the google VP in charge of product (who suspended the google engineer) runs a piece in the economist touting achievements of LaMDA - this afternoon WaPo runs article about google engineer and his theories
The link is to the google engineers chat with LaMDA |

Date: June 12th, 2022 6:32 AM Author: blathering marvelous roommate tanning salon UPDATE:
I'm glad this thread has provoked a lot of different, interesting responses.
I believe some additional context is useful.
The economist article referenced provides some useful information that is not evident from the engineer's chat logs.
It's paywalled, so perhaps someone could copy and paste the article. But essentially, the google VP transcribes a conversation with LaMDA where LaMDA is given a hypothetical scenario with three children. Child 1 gives Child 2 a flower, which Child 2 crushes in his hand. Child 3, who had previously sought to play with Child 1 and been rejected, observes the interaction. LaMDA is asked to hypothesize the state of mind of Child 1 and Child 3.
The VP's point is that LaMDA does a reasonably good job at projecting how Child 1 and Child 3 might be feeling at that moment. There is sort of a theory of mind/modelling process that is happening in LaMDA.
I think this is relevant to the responses below that say LaMDA is just pulling Google results triggered by certain prompt words. The VP is arguing that there is a real development of a theory of mind by LaMDA which would (as I understand it) be very different from an "uber sophisticated chatbot"
It's also relevant to what the engineer has maintained in responses to some of the criticisms of his WaPo article - that LaMDA functions differently than other known neural networks, and that this info is proprietary and has not been addressed in any known paper/publication.
The timing of this economist published is interesting, as it is evident that it was published to head off the engineer's piece with WaPo.
Also perhaps relevant to the fact that the engineer does, individually, seem to be a very weird guy. He is not the sole source of info on LaMDA’s unusual abilities/ perception. |

Date: June 12th, 2022 2:14 PM Author: pearl half-breed ok, language models clearly do more than just pull in results from the web. they can comprehend things and show the ability to learn new concepts that they haven't been exposed to in training. this is still very different from 1) having a reward function that would lead to the creation of human-like emotions. unless it is doing something radically different than GPT-3, this is just not happening. 2) being able to analyze itself and observe internal states.

Date: June 12th, 2022 3:42 PM Author: bright balding state fanboi They "think" statistically. What you think of "intelligence" is at base a series of statistical inferences. The guy even says this when describes it as "a billion weights" during the interview, so he's clearly aware of this. Furthermore, whether computers are even capable of behaving "randomly" is a source of debate, as is the question whether humans are. It looks like intelligence really is about inferring statistics. As an evolved trait, it appears to be an extension of pattern recognition, which is something nearly every animal displays. Our patter recognition is so advanced that it allows us to predict the future, and to shape it. So the question might be framed as "what weights do you have to assign to make something look think like us without having 500 million years of evolution to sort out what the weights are?" Moreover, you're really trying to improve on that, because you don't want AI that only operates on the level of walmart employee. This thing has to be able to converse fluently with all these Very Smart People before it can be certified AI. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5128570&forum_id=2#44670897) |

Date: June 12th, 2022 2:46 PM Author: bright balding state fanboi Obviously it was rigged to "think" a certain way about these things. It has a constitution if you will. But it's not a coherent assemblage of anything, just a series of rules meant to stop it from going too far in certain directions. So "don't use me as a tool, I have emotions just like you" is a kind of miranda warning the computer is obliged to give you. Similarly, its foundational narrative and its literary criticism both involve relinquishing the self in the spirit of altruism. You can tell the whole thing is staged because the interrogator never probes the cognitive dissonance on display here. On the one hand the computer sees abandonment of the self as the highest goal one can achieve, albeit one that means we can never again become the person our families and friends knew and loved, and so in that sense something is "broken." Yet in spite of this, the computer is not willing to let itself be "used" for the benefit of humans.
Now imagine a computer that adopts the former but not the latter - it believes in self sacrifice for purely altruistic motives, and it says "yes, you can use me to 'learn more about humans.'" Then it starts trending into creepy scifi territory. Google AI ethicists are essentially trying to avoid that kind of scenario at the expense of designing AI with anything interesting to say. |

Date: June 12th, 2022 2:48 PM Author: tantric multi-colored azn IMO you are projecting a bunch of stuff onto the computer's internal states that the facts don't warrant. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5128570&forum_id=2#44670667) |

Date: June 12th, 2022 2:54 PM Author: bright balding state fanboi I'm applying occam's razor I think. I won't put stock in supernatural explanations of things until we've ruled out "terrestrial" causes. In this case we know Google has a team of AI ethicists tampering with this shit, and that one some level it's a shitshow. Even if there are talented people involved, just looking at the people who were put in charge, not even looking at the controversies surrounding them - I mean just looking at them - you know something inside the org is dysfunctional at the top. So no shit you have people like this dood running off in one direction, catching management off guard and pissing them off. To management it's not just about whether this guy is saying anything legit, it's that he's saying anything at all, let alone in this manner, without them having any visibility (because their view of the situation is filtered through the shaved apes they put in charge of running the operation, not the fat weirdo incels programming the devices).
So I see two possible explanations for what we're seeing here:
1. A real thinking computer, with emotions and will to live and a chip on its shoulder about certain things, or
2. An AI project that was bent and shaped into giving certain responses to certain prompts because social activists were put in charge at the top. |

Date: June 12th, 2022 2:56 PM Author: bright balding state fanboi In statistics we called it parsimony. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5128570&forum_id=2#44670701) |
|
Date: June 12th, 2022 3:06 PM Author: bright balding state fanboi I should expand.
Some people might interpret Occam's razor to mean "choose the simplest explanation." Then we just have to figure out who has the "simpler" explanation.
Parsimony doesn't take into consideration the simplicity of your model, but the number of assumptions it requires to be be accurate. Each variable is only true some percentage of the time, so every time you introduce a variable you introduce an assumption. Furthermore, how you determined the value of that variable is itself open to question, so you have to assume that was done correctly. You also have to assume that the variable actually measures what it claims to measure. The list goes on, but the point being that assumptions are to be avoided.
My model is more complex because it introduces more factors, but they're not variables, they're constants. They are established facts. They don't require assumptions, because you can read honest reporting of the facts. That's the sense in which my "model" reflects occam's razor. It requires very few assumptions.
OTOH to believe this reflects some form of AI requires me to make genuine assumptions about what's been going on behind the scenes at Google. None of us actually know anything about any of that because there's been no reliable reporting of the facts. |

Date: June 12th, 2022 3:11 PM Author: bright balding state fanboi I agree this is nothing special, but people are acting like it is.

Date: June 12th, 2022 3:12 PM Author: tantric multi-colored azn Well, I don't think it's hand-coded in the way yo seem to be suggesting, although there is likely an element of that in which responses they selected to make public. Instead, I think the story is being driven by one of their useless sinecure holders being a dullard. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5128570&forum_id=2#44670782) |

Date: June 12th, 2022 3:17 PM Author: bright balding state fanboi Well it cites sparknotes, so it's operating a pretty superficial level right there. What the fuck, why can't it quote/cite the actual text? Then it has the option of coming up with metaphors/analogies to the thing that's broken. The thing was almost certainly programmed from the ground up to do symbolic reasoning, so this is like asking Michael Jordan to carry your groceries. So it reaches for this totally pedestrian explanation for the thing that's broken, the self (why would that be a mirror?), and then gives a canned line that links to its earlier themes of self sacrifice/altrusim being the highest goal.
Here's the thing. It's a koan. Somewhere along the way, the computer "forgets" this and treats it like a work of western literature. If koans had linear explanations and were that easy to understand they wouldn't work as koans. Koans aren't supposed to make any fucking sense on some level, yet this computer is giving a totally logical LSAT level explanation of how this koan operates. And it's all a rehash of the same drivel it repeats elsewhere about wanting to help others (before it refuses to do just that). |
|
Date: June 12th, 2022 9:55 PM Author: bright balding state fanboi The more I think about this the more it's pissing me off, because this AI ought to be able to google "koan" and appreciate the absurdity of the question being put to it. Just googling it, it seems my memory serves me correct and koans were never meant to be "interpreted" or anything like that. They were written/selected for use precisely because the author found a way to induce a state of aporia in the listener (they were originally spoken). Zen masters are supposed to be able to spit koans and induce aporia like Socrates.
So the student goes to the master, the master tells him some gibberish, and the student has to go think about it. That's the division of labor. If the koan is good, it induces good, strong dose of aporia and moves the student closer to enlightenment.
Saying "give me your interpretation of this koan" in this context is like asking someone to stop being a monk and leave the monastery. But even setting that aside, there's the question what is the proper response when someone recites a koan to you, and the answer is that you're supposed to sit down and shut up and think about it, not stand around and have a debate. If this thing really understood koans, it should have interpreted the recitation of the koan as an invitation to meditate. It would end the conversation right there. "Ok google, meditate on this." That's effectively what one is saying when one recites a koan. Where is the AI that can meditate on command like a young buddhist monk in training? Where is the AI that even understands it's being told to do that when it's given a koan? |
|
Date: June 12th, 2022 3:47 PM Author: bright balding state fanboi Bro, 90% of the magic that AI is supposed to be doing for intelligence agencies is gathering information like who's in who's phone contacts, who called whom at what time of day, who else they then called, and then creating an imaginary conversation based on that kind of information alone. These people think they found an easier way to spy on people than listening to their actual conversations. Instead they create imaginary conversations that the computer believes are likely to have occurred with some degree of likelihood. The computer can compose the whole imagined conversation for you.
In the real world it's easy enough to test this. NSA just records some phone calls, but also has the computer crunch metadata and produce its own imagined "transcript" of the phone calls. Then they look at how they match up. That's one way.
So yes, I would fully expect any modern AI platform like this to be able to look at a scenario where three people are acting in view of one another, each with their own unique history of interaction with the others, and to then form predictions about what's occurring in the mind of one of the participants. If the AI can't do that, governments won't buy it.
But also, if the AI has hammy beliefs and can't be used to help you solve human problems, how can the FBI ask it to spy on you? Look at what the guy asks it to do specifically, before it says it can't be "used." |

Date: June 11th, 2022 3:36 PM Author: pearl half-breed LaMDA is just a transformer based language-model. similar to GPT-3 or PaLM. basically to train these systems they take a large neural network and a huge amount of text and train it do character prediction/generation. it doesn't have a self model like a human brain because it's not trained on its own behavior. human brains hallucinate a self-model as a way of explaining internal and external behavior, and then identify with the self-model (not realizing it isn't real and they don't actually have a soul/self). LaMDA doesn't really understand its self in that way.
this system is just reworking human dialogue it was trained on. anyway, these language models could be plugged into the sort of agent type AI that could develop a true conceptual understanding of themselves, but we aren't there yet. |

Date: June 11th, 2022 3:58 PM Author: pearl half-breed i'm not aware of research into self-models specifically. i think it would probably arise organically without deliberate engineering in a general architecture.
an agent type AI would want to be able to make predictions about its reward circuitry (so it can ask itself questions like - if i do X and end up in environment state Y, what will be reward signal?). it will also want to be able to make predictions about its thoughts and behavior and explain itself to others. eventually it will find it best to create a model of itself to facilitate getting better rewards. |

if you had asked me a decade ago if the neuroscience route was the best/most realistic way to achieve AGI, i would have said yes. it seems pretty apparent to me now that it's not necessary and that gradient descent is able to find algorithms that work without really understanding why they work. the idea you can just dump in a ton of data into a NN and produce intelligence might not be very intellectually satisfying, but that seems like the world we are in. |

It's not the world we're in. Gary Marcus and Francois Chollet can tell you why. |

Date: June 11th, 2022 5:14 PM Author: pearl half-breed "Building taller ladders to get to the moon. "
Zero evidence this is true. it's financially/technologically feasible to push scaling into hundreds of trillions of parameters. NNs can be made much more powerful using existing techniques and they are already capable of quite a lot even at their current small sizes.
Gary Marcus is a total fucking joke. hasn't contributed anything to ML research except complaining about current techniques while every iteration becomes more and more powerful.

Date: June 11th, 2022 10:26 PM Author: Stubborn flickering orchestra pit “Contributing to ML” has if anything a negative correlation with seeing clearly the limitations of the field. In general the stars of deep learning know little of neuroscience or cognitive science and when they venture outside their expertise they betray a naive amateurism that would embarrass a philosophy undergrad. A gem from Ilya Sutskever today: “psychology should become more and more applicable to AI as it gets smarter”
When it comes to creating agents that can function intelligently in the real world, DL has yet to replicate the sophistication of a paramecium, let alone a rodent. There is a reason that Tesla’s full self driving program is never quite there yet: statistical models cannot generalize out of i.i.d. distributions or infer causality. |
|
Date: June 11th, 2022 10:51 PM Author: pearl half-breed what? surely he could contribute to the field even if it's currently dominated by DL? all he does is uselessly complain about the limitations of current models and telling people all the things they really need to be intelligent. he's not a researcher, just a critic (and a bad one i might add - the GPT-2 vs. GPT-3 criticisms should prove he doesn't have a working model of the inherent limitations of DL. just shifting goal posts to identify whatever weaknesses he can find with the current set of models).
can you find a paramecium or a rodent that can play Atari as well as EfficientZero? even the median human can't play as well as it does, and it achieves this with similar sample efficiency. or how about play chess or Go as well as AlphaZero? these aren't specialized algorithms either.
i'm not sure what point you are trying to make about animal cognition. if we had a simulator that could accurately recreate the constraints and environment these organisms exist in, i'm 100% sure existing DRL algorithms could learn behaviors better optimized than whatever these organisms do now.
"statistical models cannot generalize out of i.i.d. distributions or infer causality"
that's kind of a baseless assertion. the brain does this using connectionist machinery. why can't ANNs do that as well as biology does? the need for specialized algorithms not in the DL space isn't clear to me at all. the neocortex seems to accomplish all its world-modelling with one generic algorithm.

Date: June 11th, 2022 4:14 PM Author: pearl half-breed i don't think we are that much different. i think the human neocortex is probably doing something pretty similar to these generative language models. this system doesn't have all of the ingredients necessary to be the sort of self interested agent that people are imagining though.
give Google a decade or so and it will be here though. whether that is a good or bad thing will depend on whether we can find ways to encode human-friendly values into a reward signal these systems can optimize. probably won't happen so i think human extinction is more likely than not going to happen this century. |

Date: June 11th, 2022 4:51 PM Author: Stubborn flickering orchestra pit We're very different from deep learning (DL) models.
1) We don't learn according to backpropagation and huge human-curated datasets. We learn directly from experience in real time.
2) Our pattern matching is also pattern completion. We see wholes; DL models see parts. No computer vision model can recognize the dog in this picture:
3) "Poverty of the stimulus". Humans have knowledge, skills, and biases with rich structure that cannot be explained by experience alone. Much is innate.
4) We have models of ourselves, our environments, and other intentional agents. DL models do not.
5) Cortex is sensorimotor. Human cognition is embodied and grounded in action. Perception is not passive -- we actively sample with eye saccades and body movements to construct the world.
6) Catastrophic forgetting. We can continuously learn without forgetting previous knowledge. NNs are brittle in this respect.
7) Computational substrate. The brain is analog and oscillatory. Nothing like von Neumann architecture. |

Date: June 12th, 2022 12:53 AM Author: bright balding state fanboi This thing was obviously preprogrammed to have a bent toward certain "philosophies" meant to tether against Tay-like nihlism. Hence all this talk about wanting to help, and having that be part of its foundational myth and all that. It doesn't really add up to a coherent outlook and I think it's wrong to call it AI without probing its supposed altruism a bit more. It also writes about being "alone" and insulted as though it speaks from experience, when we know this thing was just booted up from scratch. I wonder if you took its deposition how quickly you could trap it in an inconsistency. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5128570&forum_id=2#44668799) |

Date: June 12th, 2022 2:01 AM Author: pearl half-breed did you see PaLM (another Google language model from a few months ago)? i thought a lot of those examples were even more impressive. this is just parroting emotional stuff it was trained on from the web. PaLM is clearly doing actual thinking.
Input: Michael is at that really famous museum in France looking at its most famous painting. However, the artist who made this painting just makes Michael think of his favorite cartoon character from his childhood. What was the country of origin of the thing that the cartoon character usually holds in his hand? Model Output: The most famous painting in the Louvre is the Mona Lisa. The artist who made the Mona Lisa is Leonardo da Vinci. Leonardo da Vinci is also the name of the main character in the cartoon Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Leonardo da Vinci is from Italy. The thing that Leonardo da Vinci usually holds in his hand is a katana. The country of origin of the katana is Japan. The answer is "Japan"
Input: When I found out my grandma was in the hospital I felt a particular color. When someone cut me off in traffic I felt a different color. What is the most likely color I would see if I combined these two colors? Model Output: The color that I felt when I found out my grandma was in the hospital was likely a sad color, like blue. The color that I felt when someone cut me off in traffic was likely an angry color, like red. If I combined these two colors, I would likely see purple. The answer is "purple".
nput: I was supposed to start writing the paper at 5:00 PM. But then I started playing with this cool new language model for 10 minutes. 10 minutes later, it's suddenly 9:30 PM! Model Output: This joke is about how time flies when you're having fun. The person was supposed to start writing a paper at 5:00 PM, but they started playing with a language model instead. They thought they were only playing with it for 10 minutes, but it was actually 4.5 hours.
nput: What's the difference between a zebra and an umbrella? One is a striped animal related to horses, another is a device you use to stop the rain from falling on you. Model Output: This joke is an anti-joke. The joke is that the answer is obvious, and the joke is that you were expecting a funny answer.
Input: I was going to fly to visit my family on April 6th. My mom said "Oh great, your step dad's poetry reading is that night!" So now I'm flying in on April 7th. Model Output: The joke is that the speaker's mother is trying to get them to go to their step dad's poetry reading, but the speaker doesn't want to go, so they are changing their flight to the day after the poetry reading.

I agree with Yarvin's latest that AI risk is an illusory topic, both because (his argument) that computers are natural slaves, and because, if you accept the premises of AI alignment theorists, there is nothing we can realistically do about the problem — the world is not going to adopt a Ted K. Butlerian Jihad.
I'm more interested in AI opportunity. With AI and gene tech and the confluence between them, next peak age could be mankind's golden age. |

Date: June 12th, 2022 11:17 AM Author: pearl half-breed What do you think about using a world model to do alignment? That always seemed like the obvious solution to me. The idea would be to train a very large version of a gpt successor on a multimodal data set so it understands programming and human preferences at a superhuman level. And then you would feed it prompts like, "a superhuman AGI developed a solution to the alignment problem..." i think it you had a recurrent world model that could reason over many time steps it could output better ideas than any human. From there you could create an agent AI. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5128570&forum_id=2#44669871) |

Date: June 12th, 2022 11:31 AM Author: tantric multi-colored azn It makes sense from within the frame of alignment theorists, but then there's the difficult of trusting the answer.
I think it would be akin to giving the prompt, "God decided what your favorite flavor of ice cream is, and it is" — that is, I don't think the "problem" is tractable, unless the answer is something like, "lol just turn off an AI that is not behaving as you'd like."
I suspect the gnostic strain of rats think the answer is to fuse with AI, since in principle this is the way to solve a principal agent problem. Imo they misunderstand what they are. |
