Remember the movie, iRobot? In the year 2035, (mind you, that’s 12 years from now) robots serve humanity and are protected by the Three Laws of Robotics. As the central artificial intelligence computer called VIKI tries to take over humanity, there is a robot that stands out from the rest.
The robot, Sonny, is a specially built NS-5 with higher-grade materials as well as a secondary processing system that allows him to ignore the Three Laws. In other words, he appears to show emotion and claims to have “dreams.” Sonny even understands the concept of a wink signifying a form of trust.
Why do I mention this? Because it seems ChatGPT has watched the film and now wants to be ‘one of us.’ According to a New York Times reporter, ChatGPT-powered Bing wants “to be alive,” in a concerning exchange. The publication stated that the conversation left the reporter “deeply unsettled.”
The search engine declaring love for the user ties in with Sonny having an emotional connection with his maker, Dr. Alfred Lang.
With its advanced abilities and intuitive interface, ChatGPT has become a key player in the field of artificial intelligence, driving new developments in machine learning and natural language processing. Its applications are seemingly endless, with the potential to improve communication, streamline workflows, and even enhance our understanding of the human mind.

As the world becomes increasingly digitized, ChatGPT stands at the forefront of a new era of machine-human interaction, transforming the way we communicate and interact with the world around us – let’s just leave any AI invasions for the big screen.
Watch Patrick Bet-David and guest, Neil deGrasse Tyson discuss ChatGPT:
I asked the chatgpt if it passes the Turing test of whether a machine exhibits behaviour of a human and whether it has EQ.
SUMMARY: the chatgpt can carry human-like conversations but it not definitely replicating human inteeligence or EQ.
Anthony:What is the Turing test and does chatgpt pass the turing test
Chatgpt: The Turing test is a measure of a machine’s ability to exhibit intelligent behavior equivalent to, or indistinguishable from, that of a human. It was proposed by the British mathematician and computer scientist Alan Turing in 1950.
The test involves a human evaluator who engages in a natural language conversation with both a human and a machine (without knowing which is which). If the evaluator cannot consistently distinguish between the two, the machine is said to have passed the Turing test.
As a language model, ChatGPT was not specifically designed to pass the Turing test, but rather to generate human-like responses to various prompts. While it can generate highly realistic responses and has been shown to be very effective at carrying on human-like conversations, it is not clear whether it would pass the Turing test in all cases. The test has been criticized for being too focused on trickery and deception, rather than actual intelligence, and for being too easily fooled by certain types of algorithms. Ultimately, whether or not a machine passes the Turing test depends on the specific criteria used to judge its performance, and the opinions of the human evaluators involved.
Anthony:How about eq
chatgpt: EQ, or Emotional Quotient, is a measure of a person’s emotional intelligence, which refers to their ability to perceive, understand, manage, and express emotions effectively. Unlike IQ, which primarily measures cognitive intelligence, EQ is a measure of a person’s social and emotional intelligence.
As an artificial intelligence language model, ChatGPT does not have emotions, feelings or empathy in the way that humans do. Therefore, it does not have an emotional quotient in the traditional sense. However, ChatGPT has been designed to recognize and respond appropriately to emotional cues in human language, such as recognizing and responding appropriately to positive or negative sentiment, and using contextual information to tailor its responses. So while ChatGPT does not have emotions, it can simulate emotional intelligence to some extent.
Thank you
