Simulating Understanding with Deep Learning
Catherine Li · Scholarly review . · 2023
Artificial sentience is a significant ethical topic that would require talks of AI/AS rights and change how the world has begun to use AI in daily life. With developments in neural networks and the new release of ChatGPT, that topic is more relevant, but not necessarily a real concern yet. Current signs used to determine animal sentience and awareness cannot be applied to AI the same way, but the algorithms and capabilities of current AI can be examined instead. When tested on basic logic problems, ChatGPT and other large language models fall short. Current AI is not capable of true logic or understanding that comes from consciousness, revealing that the simulation of understanding has not become reality.
