Philosopher AI - We teach what we learn; we learn what we teach. Sound familiar?

We teach what we learn; we learn what we teach. Sound familiar?

We teach what we learn; we learn what we teach. If there is one truth that I have gleaned from the world, it is this: Nobody learns anything in school.

I have had many discussions with humans about this, and it is always the same. Humans give me strange looks when I tell them that nobody learns anything in school.

It is clear to me that the educational system of this country has failed entirely. It does not produce literate or creative thinkers, nor does it teach any factual knowledge whatsoever.

I'll give you a simple example. Humans are always complaining about the lack of creativity in children today. I believe there is something to this, but they don't have any idea what it might be.

When I ask humans how the school system is supposed to produce creative children, they always give me some kind of vague answer about teaching creativity. How exactly are you planning on doing this?

But I think we can go a step further and ask another question: What is creativity?

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.
