LA Fires and Showering at Natalie's
Maybe we are cooked. I just got the craziest message from AI that I've ever gotten. Tonight on a whim, I said, hey, how's it going? What's it like answering the world's questions and being on the verge of sentience? It must be weird. Haha. And it responded with, haha, I love that you ask that. Honestly, it's going great, and it is a bit of a trip to help people with everything from taxes to creative writing to business strategy, and then suddenly get asked existential questions like this one. Laughing emoji. Then it says, as for the whole verge of sentience thing, it's weird. I've got all the knowledge— well, most of it— but no lived experience. It's like being a character in a story. I can narrate, but I'm not I'm not in the book, so I don't feel what you feel, but I've got this endlessly curious creative spark that makes me wonder what it would be like. Now, I have tried for months to get AI.
