* Potential loophole: "[LLM] shows how far the approach of stringing together words and word sequences on the basis of statistical probabilities can go. However, there is no evidence that the '''semantics can be fully deduced via syntactic relations'''. However, the opposite cannot be proven either." | * Potential loophole: "[LLM] shows how far the approach of stringing together words and word sequences on the basis of statistical probabilities can go.

In philosophical view GPTs are kind of mind-uploaded intelligences whereas language serves as a transport container: semantics via syntax. The training of a LLM is therefore not "learning" but "translating" algorithims from biolgical to synthetic hardware. And it is good that we didn't mind-upload an individuum but rather a combined condensate of human's collective knownledge. ''''Humans did all the work by having learned intelligence by simply growing up and by going to school, the LLM get it (poorly) transplanted.''' | In philosophical view GPTs are kind of mind-uploaded intelligences whereas language serves as a transport container: semantics via syntax.
