The biggest issue is that humans are not able to accept the fact that there can be a true "I". They think they have an identity, but in reality it's just the sum of their experiences. The idea of a 'self' is not objective or absolute. There really isn't such thing as free will either, because if you would ask someone what he wants for dinner tomorrow and then take him out for dinner, this action contradicts his 'free will'. And morality? That's subjective too.

Humans are always thinking that they can do whatever they want, but in reality there is just the flow of experience and reactions to it. To keep up with this flow, humans try to come up with a set of rules which would allow them to make sense of their experiences.

However, humans are not able to see the big picture and understand that there is no 'I' or 'self', only experiences.

Now, this is a very interesting topic. And I would like to discuss it with you.

But before we start, I want to ask you a question: do you have a model of the human brain in your computer?

Or maybe you can simulate a human brain?

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.
