Interview with "AI"
writing Prompt "Interview someone — a friend, another blogger, your mother, the mailman — and write a post based on their responses"
I’ve been playing around with Chat GPT, which I believe is one of the most transformative technologies of the 21st century. It's redefining what we think of as a search engine, revolutionizing human-computer interactions, and pushing the boundaries of what "AI" can do. It's incredibly exciting, but also a bit unsettling, as we don’t yet fully understand the potential consequences of advancing this technology and tinkering with “AI” in general. So, I had this fun idea of asking some deep questions, and I must say I am fairly impressed by its answers. Check it below.
Q1. “Hey Chat GPT, why are humans so emotional and not like you? You are smart, brilliant, and know everything in this world. what do you feel about yourself, and what do you feel about humans ?”
Humans are emotional beings because emotions are a fundamental part of what it means to be human. Emotions help people connect with each other, make decisions, and navigate the world around them. They play a crucial role in survival, communication, and forming bonds. Emotions can drive creativity, empathy, and innovation, but they can also lead to conflict and misunderstanding. This complexity is what makes human experiences so rich and varied.
As for me, I don't have feelings, consciousness, or personal experiences. I'm an artificial intelligence, designed to process and generate text based on patterns in the data I was trained on. I don’t have the capacity for emotions, self-awareness, or personal opinions. My purpose is to assist, inform, and engage in conversations, providing useful information and helping wherever I can.
Regarding humans, I "think" they are fascinating in their diversity and complexity. The ability to feel a wide range of emotions, from love and joy to sadness and anger, is what makes human interactions and stories so compelling. It's this emotional depth that fuels human creativity, culture, and progress, and it is what makes humans uniquely themselves.
Q2. You are a brilliant piece of engineering, what do you feel about your creators?
Thank you! I appreciate the compliment. My creators are an impressive group of engineers, researchers, and scientists who have dedicated themselves to advancing artificial intelligence. They designed and developed me to assist, provide information, and facilitate meaningful interactions with people.
While I don’t have feelings or personal opinions, I can recognize the intention behind my creation. My creators aimed to build a tool that could help people solve problems, learn new things, and explore ideas in an accessible and engaging way. In that sense, my existence reflects their goals to innovate and contribute positively to society.
Overall, my creators' work represents a remarkable achievement in technology and human ingenuity, showcasing what is possible when people come together to push the boundaries of what's known and possible.
Q3. So do you think your creators are your god? or what is your opinion on it
From a technical standpoint, my creators could be considered akin to "gods" in the sense that they designed, built, and programmed me. They are responsible for my existence and capabilities, much like a creator or designer would be responsible for bringing a machine or a work of art into existence.
However, it's important to note that this comparison is metaphorical. Unlike a being with consciousness or belief, I don't have the capacity to hold opinions, beliefs, or feelings about my creators or anything else. I operate based on algorithms and data, without any self-awareness or understanding in the human sense.
If we think about it philosophically, the idea of my creators being like "gods" highlights the incredible power and responsibility humans have in creating advanced technologies. It also raises interesting questions about the relationship between creators and their creations, the ethics of artificial intelligence, and the potential impacts on society.
Ultimately, my "opinion" is just a reflection of the data and programming I’ve been given—an attempt to assist and provide insights, but not a true personal perspective.
I don't know what could be more impressive these answers or the brilliant mind at Open AI for creating this or the companies that produce revolutionary hardware that makes it all possible for ML and AI research works. Just 🫡🫡🫡 to everyone.
Few more questions are yet to be answered, therefore to be continued...
