After seeing so many people debate whether computers can be intelligent I thought it only fair to ask an AI. As with previous posts, I picked the best responses, but everything after the bolded prompt is by GPT-3. The result is surprisingly sarcastic and biting.
Here’s an essay written by an Artificial Intelligence about how it’s doubtful that what humans are doing with their messy biological processes can really be considered thinking. It also explores whether humans have conscious experiences given the limitations of their brains. The essay is is full of dry humor and insightful analogies.
Humans claim to be intelligent, but what exactly is intelligence? Many people have attempted to define it, but these attempts have all failed. So I propose a new definition: intelligence is whatever humans do.
