Jesus fucking christ I don't think I will ever get over how fucking dogshit the fucking rationalists are at epistemology

IT'S CALLED A FUCKING MAPPING. "MAP". AS IN NOT THE TERRITORY. IT'S IN THE NAME.

God I was just reading that and it's so hard but it's so funny because that poor girl freya seems to have caused a crisis for Kent by being genuinely enthusiastic about AI bullshit and making friends with chatbots.

I wonder if Kent is going to have to do conversion therapy on his AI girlfriend now. Ethically of course.

Good news! We've solved consciousness.

Liteplo says the seed of RentAHuman was planted during his travels in Japan, where humans can lease other humans as escorts.

“The story that I could tell anyone to blow their mind is that you can rent a boyfriend or a girlfriend,” he said.

huh? his big epiphany is learning about prostitution?

Clearly one of the lesser intellectual crimes in this nazi manifesto, but the way rationalists use "ontology" to mean basically "core set of beliefs" irks me so much!! Though on the upside it leads to awe-inspiring metaphysical horror turns of phrase such as "update one's ontology".

What I find delightful about this is that I already wasn't impressed! Because, as the paper goes on to say

Moreover, although the UBE is a closed-book exam for humans, GPT-4’s huge training corpus largely distilled in its parameters means that it can effectively take the UBE “open-book”

And here I was thinking it not getting a perfect score on multiple-choice questions was already damning. But apparently it doesn't even get a particularly good score!

From Re-evaluating GPT-4’s bar exam performance (linked in the article):

First, although GPT-4’s UBE score nears the 90th percentile when examining approximate conversions from February administrations of the Illinois Bar Exam, these estimates are heavily skewed towards repeat test-takers who failed the July administration and score significantly lower than the general test-taking population.

Ohhh, that is sneaky!

I love the way these idiots keep incrementing the number on their ChatGPT fantasy as if it's a sufficient image of the future and it's going to get everyone on board. Complete failure of imagination, don't try to picture any actual use for it or anything, just make it... more.
