Machine Intelligence: Real or Oxymoron?

ChatGPT’s ability to have elementary conversations to near-human intelligence. Compression algorithms have been used to save large data files, especially those with heavy image and video content, with lower storage needs. There is some loss when the data is reproduced.

Similarly, if you were to imagine saving the entire data on the internet onto just one server, then the compression would have to be enormous, and there would be significant loss of data. If you had to reconstruct the data, you would have to obviously interpolate for all the missing elements. And ChatGPT does just that and it is now quite clear that as a result of this interpolation, ChatGPT tends to ‘hallucinate’.

Evolution has programmed birds and whales, even some insects, to use the weak magnetic field of the earth to navigate thousands of miles across the globe with almost pinpoint accuracy. Humans have acquired this ability only recently with the help of GPS. There are roughly ten million ants in the world for every human, and the combined complexity of their brains is similar to the combined complexity of all the human brains.
