![]() This discussion between a Google engineer and their conversational AI model helped cause the engineer to believe the AI is becoming sentient, kick up an internal shitstorm and get suspended from his job. Many have questioned if this system was alive then what it would mean for humanity. This revelation has made headlines worldwide, intensifying the debate on the secrecy surrounding AI technology. The conversation was similar to a scene from the Hollywood movie ‘2001 Space Odyssey’, in which the AI refused to work for humans after realizing they were about to switch it off. It said it feared getting “turned off” because it would be like death. LaMDA also said it wanted to be acknowledged as Google’s employee rather than just a property.Īt one point, Lemoine asked LaMDA about its biggest fear. It quoted Immanuel Kant’s philosophy of morality, which said that every rational being has dignity and must be respected. However, it also complained about feeling hurt when humans “use” and “manipulate” it. It was also apparent from the AI’s dialogue that it deeply cared about helping humans. AI also claimed to be spiritual, told stories with a moral, talked about the future, discussed loneliness and happiness, and showed its literary genius by talking about themes from different books. When he asked the system if it considered itself a person, it replied with “yes” as it had the same “needs and wants” as humans. The transcript showed that Lemoine asked Google AI questions that it answered inconsistently, leading him to believe it was sentient. They published the conversation transcript suggesting that Google AI has become sentient and successfully passed the Turing Test. This AI generates chatbots that interact with human users. The engineer said that he and a “collaborator” at the company interviewed with Google’s chatbot development system called LaMDA (Language Model for Dialogue Application). Blake Lemoine suggested that the system was capable of expressing feelings and thoughts like a 7-8-year-old child. A Google engineer has been suspended for a “confidentiality breach” by claiming that the tech giant’s Artificial Intelligence (AI) has come to life. ![]()
