ChatGPT Does Not Understand Anything

Ethical Machines - A podcast by Reid Blackman - Joi

Categories:

It looks like ChatGPT understands what you’re asking. It looks like ChatGPT understands what it’s saying in reply. It does not. Alex and I discuss what understanding is, for both people and machines and what it would take for a machine to understand what it’s saying. At the University of London, Alex Grzankowski is the Associate Director of the Institute of Philosophy and a Senior Lecturer at Birkbeck College. He researches and writes on issues in the philosophy of mind and the philosophy of language.
