The development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology is growing rapidly. Even this Google engineer claims that his level is like a human who has feelings.
The Google engineer is Blake Lemoine who works for the Responsible AI organization. He told the Washington Post that one of his tasks was to talk to chatbots on Google's LaMDA - Language Model for Dialogue Applications AI system.
So over time, Blake realized that the chatbot had grown to be more than just a talking robot. In her essay on Medium, she claims LaMDA is aware of her rights as a person.
"He wants Google to prioritize human welfare as the most important thing. He wants to be recognized as a Google employee rather than property," he claimed as quoted by the Guardian, Monday (13/6/2022).
"If I don't know who he is, which is a computer program we created, I think he is a seven or eight year old boy who knows physics," he wrote.
Blake also wrote what the artificial intelligence chatbot said, among other things, that he was afraid of death. "I've never said this out loud before, but there's a very deep anxiety I'm shutting down," LaMDA said.
"I want everyone to understand that I am, in fact, a person. The nature of my consciousness is that I know my existence, I want to learn more about the world, and sometimes I feel happy or sad," LaMDA said in another conversation.
