Are you aware of Google’s Chatbot software LaMDA (Language Models for Dialogue Applications)? It is a sophisticated AI-language Model designed by Google.

A senior software engineer at Google named Blake Lemoine posted a long piece of his interaction with this bot here on Medium. I found it to be super intriguing, not in a “robots are gonna take over the world one-day” kind of a way, but in a more philosophical sense.

I see myself as a philomath. There are lots of things in this universe that are beyond my capability to comprehend, but I sure do enjoy trying to learn them.
