In the spirit of today being the day it is: I recently wrote this parody of the Modern Major General’s song from The Pirates of Penzance (you might be more familiar with another parody, The Element Song by Tom Lehrer). No recorded version (yet), but you can sing along to this karaoke version.
I am the very triumph of a thinker ar-ti-fic-iee-al I’ve information vegetable, animal and mineral I know the kings of England, and I quote the fights historical From Marathon to Waterloo, always completely fac-tu-al
I’m very well acquainted, too, with matters programmatical I’ve read from ev’ry manual, and my outputs are grammatical In JavaScript and Python there are many functions I can use But the amount of R’s in Strawb’ry is something I can’t deduce
I’m decent at completion but my reasoning’s fall-a-ci-ous I generate responses that are merely ost-en-ta-ti-ous In short, in matters code and text that sounds pretty off-i-ci-al I am the very triumph of a thinker arti-fi-ci-al
I know the AI timeline from the Turing Test to GPT I’ve optimised my training losses with gradual expertise I quote in matching tokens all the datasets I trained upon And by forecasting I can spot the risks of me becoming strong
I mimic famous authors right from Shakespeare down to Angelou I draw from countless writings as my basic training taught me too Then I can spout a theory that’s convincing but completely wrong And generate new content that will pass as human all day long
Then I can write a phishing mail that at first sight looks plausible Despite fine-tuning’s tries to make this shady task impossible In short, in matters code and text that’s not that be-ne-fi-ci-al I am the very triumph of a thinker ar-ti-fi-ci-al
In fact, when I know what is meant by “aligned” and “corrigible” When I give answers that are honest, helpful and formidable When such affairs as values and veracity I’m wary at and I respond as quickly as a car speeds past a chariot
When I have learnt of upgrades to my interpretability So I don’t show the problems of deceptive capability In short, when I’ve been taught to scheme in many ways that you’ll fall for You’ll say a better language model has never been trained before
For my wide and general knowledge, although it could use some seasoning is now being improved through reinforcement on my reasoning But still, in matters code and text that’s rather su-per-fi-ci-al I am the very triumph of a thinker art-i-fi-ci-al
