GPT-4o is also describing things that never happened.

The first users of Eliza felt the same about the conversation with it.

The important point is to know that GPTs don't know or understand.

It may feel like a normal conversation but is a Chinese Room on steroids.

People started to ask GPTs questions and take the answers as facts because the believe it's intelligent.

Replace that with any political influencer (Ben Shapiro, AOC, etc) and you will see the exact same argument.

People remember things that didn't happen and confidently present things they just made up as facts on a daily basis. This is because they've learned that confidently stating incorrect information is more effective than staying silent when you don't know the answer. LLMs have just learned how to act like a human.

At this point the real stochastic parrots are the people who bring up the Chinese room because it appears the most in their training data of how to respond to this situation.

But it may be intelligent. After all you are with a few trillion synapses also intelligent.
