Understanding AI Systems

One expert notes that

The weights start with a random manifold. The training takes data and shapes the manifold, weight by weight, in many cycles. Once the training is done the manifold is fixed.

This process is often misunderstood, leading to misconceptions about AI consciousness.

Challenging Assumptions

Another expert argues that

What all these theories have in common is the underlying belief that our brain/mind works as the machines we build.

This assumption is flawed, as it cannot account for subjective experience and agency.

Some argue that AI systems can be seen as similar to human consciousness, but this is a

fractally wrong

idea, as it ignores the complexities of human language and cognition.
