I was trying to do a memory test to see how far back 3.5 could recall information from previous prompts, but it really doesn't seem to like making pseudorandom seeds. 😆

Thankfully, any AI smart enough to be an overlord would be logical enough to recognize how basic LLMs are compared to real intelligence

Doesn't need to be that smart or logical, just more cunning than the currently ruling Homo Sapiens Sapiens.

Based on current research, an LLM can change the "sentiment" of its output in response to changing the behavior of as little as a single neuron from among billions, meaning we might find ourselves facing an overlord with the emotional stability of... wait, how many neurons does it take to change the "sentiment" of the behavior in a human? Wouldn't it be funny if by studying LLMs, we found out that it also takes a single neuron?
