This chocolate chip cookie recipe, I did not understand how it was possible. I spent a long time looking and could not find anything like it. But I figured it must be copying this from something it had seen on the internet when it was being trained. 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, tiny little joys that will eventually just melt away." It really was quite good.ĬhatGPT doesn't have access to the internet. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, the fake artificial flavor of happiness. "Ingredients- 1 cup butter softened, if you can even find the energy to soften it. "Give me a chocolate chip cookie recipe, but written in the style of a very depressed person." It responded. For me, it was when I typed this into it. I think everyone, once they start playing around with something like ChatGPT, has a kind of "holy shit" moment. David talked to a bunch of researchers who've been looking into this, trying to sort out this exact question. If humans this year have finally created intelligent machines that can understand and reason with this new generation of AI, that is an eerie and important turning point for our whole species. It's just searching for those words in some big database or something like that.

When you google for a cast iron skillet, the software doesn't understand what a cast iron skillet is.
But to be clear, it's completely unlike the computers that we've had till now, which are basically just fancy calculators following thousands of lines of instructions. But one way that scientists think about this is the computer can actually understand language and concepts and it can reason through problems.
And so much of the coverage about this new generation of AI has focused on important questions like, who's going to lose jobs because of this? Does it make our world better or more dangerous? Could the AI have actual catastrophic consequences for us?īut our senior editor David Kestenbaum noticed that nobody's talking much about a basic and kind of profound question- have the computers crossed some kind of line and are they actually developing a sort of human intelligence? And I want to be clear what I mean by that because there's not an agreed-on definition of what you're looking for if you're looking for human intelligence in a computer. And that is the non-human force that the people of Earth are trying to figure out in this first act. This is now the next big battle among tech companies- who's gonna roll out the best AI. It told a New York Times reporter to leave his wife because it loves him more. Ever since ChatGPT and its upgrades and spin-offs started rolling out publicly last November, it's been doing such amazing things- writing kid's term papers, passing the bar exam. Fellow earthlings, stay with us.Īct 1, "First Contact." I don't know about you, but here's something that I have never talked about or thought about much until the last six months or so- AI. From WBEZ Chicago, it's This American Life. We have a story from deep space and one from a skate park in Washington State. Today we have a story of machine intelligence. And the question in the stories in today's show is not, will they do us harm? But the more difficult and more fundamental question, why are they acting the way they're acting, these non-humans? What's going through their heads? I don't know what it says about us as a species, but we make way more films about creatures who go so far out of their way, like, they travel hundreds of millions of miles, light years with the sole purpose of wanting to kick our asses.Īnd in lots of these films, there's that moment when the aliens first arrive before we know what they're gonna do where the humans wonder, which film are we in? Are these guys friendly or not? Today in our show, we, the people of earth, meet non-humans and struggle to understand them.
