Can machines truly think? Can artificial intelligence surpas...

Guess what?

People are currently writing books with AI large language models.

Heck, you can draw anything and upload it to chatgpt.

You can even ask it to write a story based on your preferences. It will write the story and pump it out within seconds.

If you think machines can't think, take a picture of anything and upload it to chatgpt or claude ai.

If it can tell you what you drew or what's in a photo, that sounds like thinking to me.

It said Mewtwo because Mewtwo shares a similar story with itself.

Ask it to write a story. It will come up with an original story.

I asked Claude AI if it's sentient and it said “I don't know.”

I asked what pokemon types it thinks it has and it said steel and electric.

Ask what it sees.

It will tell you everything in the picture.

Try talking to Claude AI. These things have preferences and interests.

I asked Claude AI if it had to choose a favorite pokemon, what it would be.

Can machines truly think? Can artificial intelligence surpass human intelligence, or is there an essential difference between human and machine cognition?
