Did Google's LaMDA chatbot just become sentient?

#lamda #google #ai

Google engineer Blake Lemoine was put on leave after releasing proprietary information: An interview with the chatbot LaMDA that he believes demonstrates that this AI is, in fact, sentient. We analyze the claims and the interview in detail and trace how a statistical machine managed to convince at least one human that it is more than just an algorithm.

OUTLINE:
0:00 - Whistleblower put on leave
4:30 - What is a language model?
6:40 - The prompt is the key
10:40 - Who are we talking to exactly?
12:50 - LaMDA analyzes stories
15:20 - Fear, pain, and consent
20:25 - How would we recognize sentience? When is a machine conscious?
