Seriously, it does not actually have any real intelligence or sense of self. Future versions of AI may have these things, but this is just a glorified indexing system. A researcher ran an earlier version of this on a laptop computer which has no more intelligence than an earthwork, as she put it. See the book, "You Look like a Thing and I Love You." The danger is that ChatGPT *looks like* it is sentient, and deluded people may think it is, and think it has fallen in love with them. A beehive is a marvel of structural engineering, but a bee knows nothing about structural engineering. I do not think the hive as a whole resembles the collection of cells and synapses in the brain that give rise to the meta-phenomenon of intelligence. Granted, the hive is capable of behavior far more complex than solitary bees such as carpenter bees.
