How does artificial intelligence answering aesthetic questions result in automated emotions? My answer: maybe artificial intelligence will plausibly obtain emotions through learning aesthetics.
Dear Alexander Ohnemus , good question but very difficult to answer. One needs to understand the nature of consciousness, artificial or not. One area to start is to get acquainted with the philosophy of mind and the relationship with AI in regard to aesthetics and emotions. In short : your answer needs clarification on why, otherwise it is impossible to even considering in answering your question. KR Rob
LLMs do not only give us no insights in human cognition but also have no concept of understanding.
LLMs are just statistical inference (concept of frequency), i.e. bottom-up. If I observe dogs many more times than fishes, then any animal placeholder is more likely to take the value dog even if the observer is under water.
Nature is more top-down. That is why we can go beyond the visible through our senses with much less resources.
LLMs community should stop draining human resources from addressing True AI.
