Re: [agi] How does a machine "understand"? What is your definition of "understanding" for an AGI?

[immortal . discoveries]

Text/image/sound prediction is guided by reward, so if you make it favor the 
word 'cheese', it will tend to predict cheese a lot more. It's just a simple 
adjustment permanently to the weights. It makes you say something for no 
reason, just instinct - to solve global warming, using fries, sleep, and women 
(all the things you love), because they are 100% 'awesome' triggers. So next 
time you think you see a carrot, you probably think it is a French Fry a bit, 
cuz that neuron is already pre-active all the time (well, in cycles), so, you 
expect fries! Not carrots.
