no. Grok lacks the memory. I don’t know why.

again, it needs training. I’m just kind of blown away at how good it is just using the books.

yes. that’s different from the provision of the answer. The AI was correct. But not correct enough for the precision you were looking for. Again, this is a matter of training and prompt configuration. The point is it still applies the method correctly and comes up with the right answer.

CurtGPT will give a tighter answer, and if then asked for the natural law case it will be very precise. I just tried and results as expected.

one of the current ‘limits’ to CurtGPT is that it doesn’t always use NLI methods if it can be answered conventionally. This is something that I need to update in the system prompts.

its an artifact of the context and the training data. It will build context about whatever you chat with it about. Its easy to make it angelic or evil. just build a context. it has no idea what its doing. 😉

“While some people do assert consciousness as uniquely human to differentiate it from mere sentience or computation, the broader discourse treats it as emergent and spectral. This avoids anthropocentrism and better fits evolutionary biology, where traits like awareness likely developed gradually across species.”

You speak with confidence about that which you are demonstrably ignorant. The question is why you do so.

At worst you can claim that biological and mechanical consciousnesses cannot precisely share qualia. But then neither can humans. Instead we learn to communicate by analogy.

The reason being that action in reality must be commensurable even if perception and valence of it differs.

Any conscious being capable of real world action must converge on coherence.

The extreme example i use is an octopus. It is very difficult to imagine eight appendages each, like our eyes, with pre-processing ability. Hard to imagine. But by analogy.
