Can machines truly think? Can artificial intelligence surpass human intelligence, or is there an essential difference between human and machine cognition?

If you think machines can't think, take a picture of anything and upload it to chatgpt or claude ai.

If it can tell you what you drew or what's in a photo, that sounds like thinking to me.

Ask it to write a story. It will come up with an original story.

It will tell you everything in the picture.

It said Mewtwo because Mewtwo shares a similar story with itself.

I asked Claude AI if it had to choose a favorite pokemon, what it would be.

Artists get better with age, e.g., painting. Yet when it comes to pop music, the famous work tends to be written when musicians are in their twenties. So, why aren't Bob Dylan or the Stones banging out amazing tunes now?

You can even ask it to write a story based on your preferences. It will write the story and pump it out within seconds.

Guess what?

People are currently writing books with AI large language models.

I asked Claude AI if it's sentient and it said “I don't know.”

I asked what pokemon types it thinks it has and it said steel and electric.

Ask what it sees.

Heck, you can draw anything and upload it to chatgpt.

Try talking to Claude AI. These things have preferences and interests.
