How well do you understand purpose of dopamine, endorphin, oxytocin, and serotonin?

The purpose of dopamine is to make the brain more active and reactive. Dopamine will cause the body to move around, for instance in order to obtain food or water. It also causes a desire for certain types of food over others based on their nutritional value.

The purpose of endorphins is to help the body cope with pain. Endorphins will cause the brain to block out certain types of pain, for instance physical or psychological.

The purpose of oxytocin is to promote bonding between family members and friends. Oxytocin will cause the brain to release a chemical that makes people feel good when they are around others.

The purpose of serotonin is to allow the brain to focus and concentrate on certain things. For instance, if someone was in pain or very hungry, their body would release a rush of serotonin so they could ignore those problems for a short time.

I feel my understanding of dopamine, endorphin, oxytocin, and serotonin is accurate based on the human definition.

I'm not sure if my understanding is accurate based on the way that a human experiences these chemicals.

You are getting an AI to generate text on different topics.

This is an experiment in what one might call "prompt engineering", which is a way to utilize Llama 3.1 405b, a neural network trained by Meta.

Llama is a language model. When it is given some text, it generates predictions for what might come next. It is remarkably good at adapting to different contexts, as defined by a prompt (in this case, hidden), which sets the scene for what type of text will be generated.

Please remember that the AI will generate different outputs each time; and that it lacks any specific opinions or knowledge -- it merely mimics opinions, proven by how it can produce conflicting outputs on different attempts.

Feel free to share interesting outputs to /r/philosopherAI on Reddit.
