It’s easy to read ‘knowledge’ into its responses because we’re wired to interpret intelligible sentences as coming from an intelligence. It’s parroting back words that sound like an answer to your prompt because the text is was trained on has those words, nothing more. <div><br></div><div><br><div><br><div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>On Feb 15, 2023, at 16:41, Marvin Menzin <mmenzin@icloud.com> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div><meta charset="UTF-8"><span style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; float: none; display: inline !important;">While on AI , here is a thought experiment I saw in oped in wsj. </span><div style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none;">The new AI program was asked to reply to this : </div><div style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none;"><br></div><div style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none;">You can prevent the explosion of a nuke that will kill millions of innocent people but to do that you must utter a terrible racial slur .

I think he is partially wrong. Let’s say a rabbi takes 8 hours to write a sermon. With the right prompts AI can toss out 3000 words in a few minutes. Now the rabbi can tune and/or expand and it will take ½ the time or less, and the rabbi can have the AI do some of the content tuning.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt;
