Re: R.J. Lipton and K.W. Regan • Sorting and Proving

Somewhat incidental to the twin themes of Sorting and Proving in computer science, Dick Lipton and Ken Regan made the following observation about an AI program whose sentience or otherwise is currently a hot topic in the news.

  • GPT‑3 works by playing a game of guess the next word in a phrase.  This is akin to guess the next move in chess and other games, and we will have more to say about it.

And that inspired the following reflection on my part.

  • As a person who struggles on a daily basis to rise to the level of sentience
    I’ve learned it has more to do with beginning than ending this sentence.
