Show Summary:
How can humans determine if an Artificial Intelligence is sentient when sentience is what AI is designed to imitate?
This week, we’re joined by Artificial Intelligence games designer Reed Berkowitz.
Berkowitz discusses former Google Responsible AI team member Blake Lemoine’s claim that Google’s AI chatbot LaMDA is sentient. What made Lemoine believe this? How can we come to understand Lemoine’s belief?
To help us, Berkowitz delivers an AI primer: From AI games to the most popular use cases of the technology, he gives a brief explanation of the terms we need to understand. Then, he discusses an experiment he conducted with an open-source AI chatbot to learn if he can achieve the same results as Lemoine.
Does Lemoine have a case? If not, where did Lemoine go wrong?
