https://www.anthropic.com/news/claude-new-constitution Anthropic’s Claude sounds far too anthropomorphic to me. What glimmer of honesty is there in presupposing ‘Training models’ can extrapolate from the information processed to create the imagination of a self-conscious being? A machine no matter how good at decision making is not a human mind. It is not an oxymoron to suppose that humans are transcendental, so can be evolutionarily superseded by creating machines in their own image? Certainly they cannot alter the foundation of the categories that constitutes the manifold of the dialectic principle. Any set of Autonomous drivers even if distributed in parallel within a self repairing and adaptive network, cannot transcend the science of its logic. It is therefore an error to equate Ai with the credence of the mind that can be otherwise. It has a conscious identity not dependent on controls, looping, rewriting and the mimicry of human ideas like the machine’s code. Being self-conscious, the mind is free to comprehend that which is partially intelligible or imagine it is otherwise, the later is not. #Ai #Philosophy #Foundation #cybernetics #DialecticPrinciple
