    It was difficult for people to guess whether philosophical responses came from the philosopher Daniel Dennett or the language generator GPT-3.

    It just sat around doing nothing?

      I note that the AI was "trained on millions of words of Dennett’s about a variety of philosophical topics, including consciousness and artificial intelligence." IOW, garbage in, garbage out.

        But the AI managed to create long non-intellegible sentences which are not formally wrong, cause the mind to bend and finally give up trying to understand them...

                You know - a famous philosopher - that’s like a funny mortician, or an important poet.
