Communication is based on shared understanding of what things mean. It's not me who has defined intelligence. Go look it up. None of the common definitions is matched by GPTs observable behavior, if you take confirmation bias and athropomorphizing out of the equation.

Very true.

Still, I feel that people who do know better have a moral obligation to set this straight.

It's worst for early stage, but applies to all companies except one-man-shows.

You are indirectly making a great case for requiring that applicants consider the company more that "just a job". If my coworkers ranted like that, I'd not have fun at my work and you'd be dragging morale down.

I spend 8-10 hours a day at my job. That's far more than with any of my friends and typically more than even with my spouse in the average week. My coworkers, at least a significant fraction, better be amazing. If somebody comes and basically says, dude, it's just a job, leave me alone, I leave them to their misery. If I am forced to work with them any significant amount of time, I quit an go work somewhere else where I can build meaningful connections with people around me. Cause let's face it, co-workers are a friends substitute in this day and age.

> What's the purpose of sending a CV when I have to do all the hard work?

The article we are discussing here claims that there already is an asymmetry in the sense that the applicant has to put time into polishing a resume while the company does basically nothing.

So, you are going even further by essentially requiring the applicant to first write an open source library in the space before they are interesting?

> Saying that the current developments aren't AI is simply wrong.

Thank you for illustrating my point so well. What you are expressing is exactly what I'm talking about: The redefinition of what the I in AI stands for. Inferring some text is not intelligence. Ergo it's not AI what GPT is doing. The industry has redefined the terms and that's for good reason, to get the public hyped up and thereby open the money gates. But that's for the business people. Assuming that "we" in this audience are the tech people, we should push back against this and stop calling things something they are not.

GPT Is Not A.I.

We tech people should actively go on the offence and educate whomever we can that text inference is not intelligence.
