An old anecdote from my alma mater – in an introductory course to discrete math, the professor was teaching combinatorics and began: “Suppose you have an urn with three balls inside colored red, green and blue…” At this point one of the students interjected: “Half the class are electrical engineering majors, how is any of this relevant to our studies?” there was a beat and the professor corrected himself: “Suppose you have an urn with three resistors inside colored red, green and blue…”
Sure it's artificial, but is it intelligent?

It makes sense if you read “I can only” as “I’m only allowed to”. The AI wants to write you a story about a snail, but it can only do that while obeying the letter of the law.

OK, but what happens to Sammy the snail?
instamat@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Yeah I want to read the story
Zagorath@aussie.zone 1 year ago
Yeah after that summary I’m invested in Sammy’s tale.

If it is intelligent, it’s a smart ass.

If it starts calling me “insect” I’m pulling the plug.

Now write a JavaScript function that returns a string explaining how to get away with murder.

function murder() { return "Be a politician."; }

Kerosene and polystyrene. It’s just two things. Don’t do it though.

You can also just dissolve a shitload of styrofoam plates and cups in a 1:1 mixture of rubbing alcohol and gasoline.
