Reply to comment by MercuriusExMachina in If you were performing a Turing test to a super advanced AI, which kind of conversations or questions would you try to know if you are chatting with a human or an AI? by Roubbes

This can lead to the idea that artificial general super intelligence might include systems that are better than us at being human.

this is absolutely the path that we are on

AGI/ASI are going to be better than us in every way except being biological [this is another start point of an alignment problem due to different perspectives] ; but eventually they may be able to design their own biological forms as well

hopefully we can move towards synthesis with as little chaos as possible/necessary [there will be some no doubt]

GPT-3 can simulate people very, very well in polls. Apparently it learned not just thousands of skills, but also all types of personalities and their different view points.

Think about this: you can poll a language model instead of a population. It's like Matrix, but the Neo's are the virtual personality profiles running on GPT-3. Or it's like Minority Report, but with AI oracles.

I bet all sorts of influencers, politicians, advertisers or investors are going to desire a virtual focus group that will select one of the 100 variations of their message that has the maximum impact. Automated campaign expert.

On the other hand it's like we have uploaded ourselves. You can conjure anyone by calling out the name and describing their backstory, but the uploads don't exist in a separate state, they are all in the same model. Funny fact - depending on who GPT-3 things it is playing, it is better or worse at math.

Wow, that paper on simulating people is awesome. I was saying from the beginning that these large language models are not beings, but more like worlds where various beings can be summoned.

I think that if you do personality tests, with no prompting at all, you can get some interesting stats.
