"Sure it might produce convincing examples of human speech, but it fundamentally lacks an internal point of view that it can express..."

Sounds just like the chess experts from 30 years ago. Their belief at the time was that computers were good at tactical chess, but had no idea how to make a plan. And Go would be impossible for computers, due to the branching factor. Humans would always be better, because they could plan.

GPT (or a future successor) might not be able to have "an internal point of view". But it might not matter.

Agreed. AI art will continue to improve.

This reminds of of the chess computers from 30 years ago. Experts were convinced computers would never beat GM humans, based on the state-of-the-art of the time. They never took into account all the future advancements in hardware and software.

Some places have geographic features that make the cardinals easy. Like in Denver, the mountains are always west.

From 2022, Tata Steel Round 9 – 25 January 2022 Magnus (2865) played Shakhriyar Mamedyarov (Azerbaijan), rated 2767 at the time

From 2021, Tata Steel Round 12, 30.01.2021 Magnus (2862) played Radosław Wojtaszek (Poland) rated 2705 at the time

picking 1 would still dominate over any other strategy, in a head-to-head.

However, if you are trying to maximize your H2H score against a pool of contestants, a cooperation strategy, where you both alternated taking the lower number would be close to optimal.

Today's "classic version" is just a variant that allows pawns to move two squares on their first move.

By 2055, the "minute" displayed on a clock may be incorrect, which again may cause issues with legal timestamps.

I'm not following here. What defines "legal timestamps" in our current system? I'm unaware of any laws in the US that uses the actual position of the sun to determine the time.

"Noon" when the sun is at the highest point, can vary over an hour across a timezone.

If an artist has a well-known art style, and this algorithm was trained on it and can copy that style...

A lawyer could argue that the algorithm is producing a derivative work of the copyrighted input.

Kids are like 80x or more likely to kill themselves than to be killed in a school shooting.

Sure, if you limit the numbers to just school shootings. Why not count all kid deaths by firearms? A kid is twice as likely to die by bullet than by suicide.

School shootings are just the currently most visible form of kid death by bullet.
