Short summary of the paper 'Role playing in Large Language Model'

[Friday evening short video] Where I'm summarizing a paper that caught my attention this week: "Role play with large language models" by Murray Shanahan, Kyle McDonell and Laria Reynolds.

Not a technical paper! This one is on anthropomorphism and AI – An interesting approach to explaining AI. It's doesn't solve everything but I'll likely experiment with using this approach when talking about AI to new comers to the field of LLM.

That's true for almost everything. We are just role playing until dead.

I think this really needs some visual support like slides

I disagree that LLM's are very different from what we know about ourself. Current models are almost equivalent to our own 'system 1' brain architecture. Future llm's will most likely be made in our image/capabilities, and _will_ become more like us.
