Quote from David Chalmers' latest paper "What we talk to when we talk to language models"

#philsky #philosophyofmind #ÁIphilosophy #LLMs

philpapers.org/rec/CHAWWT-8...
"Let’s start with a simple thought experiment involving multi-tenancy (inspired by the TV series Severance and by John Locke’s example of a “day-man” and a “night-man” in his 1690 Essay Concerning Human Understanding). Suppose that in the future, GPT-8 supports conscious LLMs. And suppose that GPT-8 is used to support two different long-term conversations on the same hardware instance. The first LLM, WorkBot, is active only during the day at work. The second LLM, HomeBot, is active the rest of the time, mainly at home. The conversations are sealed off from each other. WorkBot and HomeBot are at least interpretable as having different beliefs and desires. Are WorkBot and HomeBot one conscious subject or two?"

So happy to have seen my favourite painting once again

#Florence #Uffizi #Botticelli
The unique, delicate painting of Botticelli's La Primavera. It shows Venus, Cupid, the Three Graces, and Mercury in an orange grove and other trees. The scene depicts the wind god Zephyr pursuing the nymph Chloris, who transforms into Flora, the goddess of spring, as she scatters flowers.

The coin went through!

(Description of the ritual in the alt text)
Fountain of “Il Porcellino” (actually a wild boar) in Piazza del Mercato Nuovo in Florence. According to legend, touching the statue's nose brings good luck, but there's more to the ritual. After rubbing the nose with a coin using one hand, you place the coin in the animal's open mouth and let it drop. If it falls through the grating, it guarantees good luck.
