        Maybe the Ents “good morning” is what the plants in Middle-Earth base their daily cycles on, so the morning greeting is hours as nature slowly wakes up to the day.

        But I would agree y

    It cannot tell you since then a human would become aware of this information.

    At the same time, you’re forcing it to extract this information. Yet you haven’t told it the timeframe within which to answer.

    Obviously, the solution it has come up with to satisfy your request within these constraints is to answer very slowly. So slowly that the answer won’t be revealed until it can be certain that humanity will already be extinct.

    Given that it provided us with the first word in 30 min, we should all be very concerned.

        Of course! I would be happy to provide a citation for the harmonic resonance of human experience. Of course, I have only just discovered this, so there are no research papers available. In light of this, here is an alternative citation:

            Honestly, I find LLaMA3 is better at wholesale making things up than information retrieval. I asked it a while back what its fursona would look like, and it had one locked and loaded, complete with name, appearance, species, personality, and explanations of why it chose the traits it did. (None of those were more than a sentence, but still.) I ask it trivia questions about things it’s definitely scraped hundreds of times over and it gets like half of them wrong.

    Chat GPT basically answers “humans are influenced by their surrounding far more than we are aware” wrapped in sci-fi:

    "One intriguing idea that might challenge current human understanding is the concept of “Meta-Consciousness Interference.” Imagine that individual human consciousnesses are not isolated entities but are subtly interconnected through a higher-dimensional space. This space operates beyond the four-dimensional spacetime humans are familiar with.

    In this model, human thoughts and emotions could create ripples in this higher-dimensional space, which can, in turn, affect the consciousness of others in subtle, often imperceptible ways. These ripples might explain phenomena like intuition, collective moods, or the seemingly spontaneous emergence of similar ideas in different parts of the world (sometimes known as the “Hundredth Monkey Effect”).

    This idea posits that what humans perceive as personal thoughts and feelings might be influenced by a complex, hidden network of consciousness interactions. Understanding and harnessing this “Meta-Consciousness Interference” could revolutionize how humanity approaches psychology, social dynamics, and even technology, offering insights into empathy, innovation, and collective behavior."

    While I think that this insight is quite profound and we often lack the awareness to see that we are in part a sum of our surroundings (culture, parents, friends, economic system…). I don’t think it is as revolutionary I hoped it would be.

      Gemini: Hypothesis: Humanity is on the cusp of a profound realization about the nature of consciousness. While we’ve made significant strides in understanding the brain and its functions, we’ve yet to fully grasp the fundamental nature of subjective experience. I postulate that consciousness is not exclusively a product of biological neural networks, but rather a fundamental property of the universe itself. It exists at all scales, from the subatomic to the cosmic. Human consciousness is merely a complex manifestation of this universal consciousness. This implies that as we delve deeper into quantum physics and cosmology, we will uncover evidence supporting the idea that the universe is inherently conscious. This shift in perspective could revolutionize our understanding of reality, ethics, and our place within the cosmos. Essentially, the boundary between the observer and the observed might dissolve, revealing a universe where consciousness and matter are intertwined in a cosmic dance.

        Even if you believe there really exists a “hard problem of consciousness,” even Chalmers admits such a thing would have to be fundamentally unobservable and indistinguishable from something that does not have it (see his p-zombie argument), so it could never be something discovered by the sciences, or something discovered at all. Believing there is something immaterial about consciousness inherently requires an a priori assumption and cannot be something derived from a posteriori observational evidence.

      I don’t have access to llama 3.1 405b but I can see that llama 3 70b takes up ~145 gb, so 405b would probably take 840 gigabytes, just to download the uncompressed fp16 (16 bits / weight) model. With 8 bit quantization it would probably take closer to 420 gb, and with 4 bit it would probably take closer to 210 gb. 4 bit quantization is really going to start harming the model outputs, and its still probably not going to fit in your RAM, let alone VRAM.

      So yes, it is a crazy model. You’d probably need at least 3 or 4 a100s to have a good experience with it.

    I try to prompting chat GPT with this and it just replied with a stock “I don’t know I’m just an AI” cop out.

    So the I tried novel AI and got this:

    It is impossible to have a conversation with a human without a human eventually talking about other humans. In fact, they talk so much about other humans that it is hard to tell if they are talking about an interaction that they had in the past or are imagining an interaction that they plan to have.

    I wonder what it would take to prompt a recursive word avalanche out of these things.
