Reply to comment by fREAKNECk716 in [OC] The cost of training AI on ImageNet has decreased from over $1000 to just under $5 in just 4 years by giteam

Your statement is wrong and has been for decades. It can definitely respond to brand new stimuli it's never seen before. You seriously think the ChatGPT guys "preprogrammed" the answer to "Give me the recipe for a cake but in Shakespearean iambic pentameter"? Lol? There are also tons of AI systems that for example take any painting you give them and make it look like Van Gogh. The programmers never saw your painting before...

If you want to argue subjectively about the term intelligence, fine, but "preprogrammed responses" as well as "predetermined stimuli" are both objectively wildly incorrect.

No, they preprogrammed how to break down that sentence into individual parts and process each one and how they relate to each other.

What you have seemed to miss, is the part of my statement in parenthesis.

If you meant "processing", why did you say "stimuli and responses", neither of which is processing?

Regardless, also no, they almost certainly didn't train it grammar either. Similarly to how you don't teach your 2 year old child sentence diagramming, in most AI like this, it picks it up from examples, not explicit rules.

They did program in basic fundamentals of learning and conditioning though. Much like your human genes programmed into you, since newborn infants already demonstrate reinforcement learning...
