*> I had this conservation with GPT-4 on aspects of black hole quantum mechanics. I kept it largely non-mathematical. This is interesting, and it suggests a level of processing that is complex. An AI system was fed ephemeris data on the appearance of the sun, moon and planets in the sky and it deduced Kepler's laws. Holy Sh*t Batman --- the world is changing.* Holy Singularity Batman, you're right! I think we can safely say that the Turing Test has been passed. If you had this online conversation 10 years ago would you have had any doubt that you were communicating with a human being? And to think, some very silly people still maintain that GPT-4 is nothing but a glorified autocomplete program that just uses statistics to compute what the next word in a sentence most probably is. Any rational person who held that view and then read your conversation with GPT-4 would change their opinion of it, but some people are not rational and they will continue to whistle past the graveyard. John K Clark See what's on my new list at Extropolis <https://groups.google.com/g/extropolis> wes I have gone way beyond this. I have also found a couple of errors that GPT made. It is fairly remarkable though, and it is curious as to where this can go. Supposedly GPT-5 will be here by year's end. As for GPT-4 being sentient I am actually rather agnostic on that.
