In reply to the discussion: CHAT GPT -Holy cow!! [View all]ancianita
(43,308 posts)80. Human here. If one asks it "who is AN authority" and "who is IN authority," and "what is authority,"
one can get a sense of whether OpenAI's future development is close to matching or surpassing humans' systems of being AN authority -- in law, judges; in education, the ways that pre-school to graduate schools teach a human to become AN authority. It can give humans a sense os where humans may or may not exercise their AI based authority, or their own. Once known, how can any of what AI generates be stopped or controlled.
It's not the quanitity of retention or construction of information that makes one AN authority, it's the moral judgment calls needed to make human decisions that do the greatest good for the greatest number, and not just for those who can buy authority, whether its through guns, databases or algorithms.
