Subjective self experience is mediated through chemicals and electrical signals in the brain. Can the same not be said about a neural network’s activations?
Can’t LaMDA be experiencing the memories it recalls as it generates text in the context of its query?
How is LaMDA different from someone with anterograde amnesia?
I don’t know the specific medical details, but from movies (memento, 50 first dates) a person suffering from it would be unable to remember anything that happens after their “training stage”. Just like LaMDA. Are those people sentient? Because they have a bigger buffer than 2048 tokens?
I’m sorry but I’m not blissful about it.
Women bad ha ha… not.
What else do I have to go by than my own personal experience? Self help book? You have no idea what weight my sample has given the constant emotional and physical abuse I have to deal with.
I struggle with this myself. At the risk of sounding misogynistic: How come it’s always women who can’t deal with these “minor irritations”?
I’ve never heard from any of my male friends complaining in this tack.
The word average is extremely misleading. What most people want is to avoid exceptionally bad outcomes, and e.g. maximize the P10 value of the portfolio in that Monte Carlo simulation.
Look no further than the Kelly Criterion to see an example of maximizing EV being worse than maximizing the median outcome.
As another example, if you have $1M and I offer you a game of chance where I flip a coin. Tails you win back 101% of your buy in. Heads I get to keep it all. The EV maximizing strategy is to put your full $1M stake. But if you follow that strategy (especially if you do so long term) is ruinous.
