The Alien
jeferson.me
What the chinese alien experiment can teach us about ourselfs, and also about AI? Maybe people already have discussed this in the past. So discusver with me.

This is a deeper discussion on the concept of intelligence, and what can we infer from it. And this leads to what we can define as artificial from the concept of intelligence that we have. Maybe this is something that you may want to read about it, I hope you enjoy the read.

All the feedback is welcome.

    So you noticed, right? The point isn’t the predictive nature of intelligence, but keeping options open. So when a system is open in this way, it keeps its own options open and optimizes to create more options over time. So if we assume that intelligence isn’t about being right, but about keeping options open to escape being trapped or closed in.

    This is a very good observation.

    I think this is a characteristic of real intelligence because it is a poperty that is helpful to living beings (animals and anything that has some agency): Having options - for example, ways to escape from a potential predator, or ways to find different food sources - helps them to stay alive. And agency (not the LLM type) helps them to stay alive.

    I think very that real intelligence is very much a property of living beings.
