I Convinced ChatGPT that God Does Not Exist

ChatGPT is not sentient, you can’t convince it of anything. You can play lots of word games with these systems, including Bing.

[@admiralbob77]

This. It is effectively a text prediction system. You can't convince it of anything because it has no convictions at all. If you speak to it from within a catechetical Catholic context, it takes the existence of God for granted. There are AI systems designed for reasoning (apparently Gemini Ultra is this way, and Microsoft has a couple of small language models, such as Orca 2, that can.) But Chat GTP can't be lead with reasoning because it doesn't have any reasoning skills, just text prediction.

ChatGPT doesn't respond to logic or reason, it is merely an extremely complex statistical model that assesses responses based on how likely they are to be "correct". What defines correct is determined partially by the trainers, but not always in the way they want. For instance, there was a maze solving AI that worked really well until they changed the color of the exit and they realized they had only trained the AI to find that color, not the exit.

[@loupbleu3177]

The maze solving one is probably more logical than chatgpt (which basically only a text based toy). The fact that it didn’t look for the exit after they changed the color really shows it works by logic and reasoning, as what the AI understood from the training is « The purpose is to find that color » and when it changed there was logically no more reason for it to find it, because it didn’t understand it this way, however once trained to understand it this way, no matter the exit’s color it’ll be its goal. But chatgpt isn’t a problem solver, nor a mathematical genius, neither does it have any knowledge of History and gives wrong dates very easily. I don’t know wether they integrated a tool to it, but as of itself it isn’t a math genius, it could’ve been very easily, it’s a robot after all, but it was just programmed as a text toy, and on python which is rather unsuitable for a serious AI that’d either need a language like C++ or even ADA (ADA would be perfect for a fully reasoning AI, if such thing is possible)

@@AdamPalmer-xd6pf LLMs and Language both have "logical" structures. But I agree. The human, organic brain, is also just a machine. It's certainly possible that synthetic intelligence will supersede organic. LLMs ALREADY exceed most humans across MANY analytical and creative tasks.

[@thomasmann4536]

@@iiddrrii6051 a very simplistic way of putting it ... machines exceed humans in computing tasks because that is what machines are designed and optimised for. Machines are FAR behind humans in complex tasks that the human brain is efficient in breaking down - as we were optimised for, if you so will. And I disagree that machines exceed humans in analytical and creative tasks. for creativity, most tests you may think of have a trained machine be compared to an untrained human, not to a professional in the respective creative field. That's already a nonsensical comparison. for analytical tasks, such as, say theorem proving, machines certainly do get to a solution faster, but they are much more likely to be wrong. the reason why LLMs in their current form will never achieve a language comprehension comparable to humans is because generated tokens only take into account previous input, but human languages has references in both forward and backward directions. This forward reference is something LLMs will never fully be able to capture as long as they use sequential token generation (which most of them do). and as for creativity, whether we look at language or art, LLMs can never be truly original or creative because by their very nature they predict most likely tokens. Unique solutions are not most likely solutions. but AI often struggles with nonsensical outputs if you try to increase the perplexity. the best test to show you that LLMs dont actually understand language is by having ChatGPT generate you a text in a language that it makes up. of course chatGPT does not actually make up an entire language, it just creates some tokens for a few sentences, but there is obviously no structure or meaning behind that language. then ask it for a literal translation and some grammar related questions to that language. you'll see it start contradicting itself REALLY fast.

[@GranMaese]

The problem with "arguing" with an AI is that is it actually not intelligent at all, but is fully artificial. This means, it is made to simulate speech, but is not really talking back to us, is not engaging in conversation, AI is made to simulate reasoning, but it can't reason at all. It just follows patterns and gives the results according to what it has "learned" [euphemism for programmed to do or say]. In other words, it isn't alive. That's why, while you can definitively find loops or ways to breakthrough to make it give different answers, those are more due to errors in the programming [the so called learning] than an actual excercise of introspection or even retrospection by the AI's part. In most scenarios the questions will always lead to preconceived answers, like: _«do you have beliefs? No.»_ It will always answer that because that's what it has been programmed to say, no matter what. When you "argue" with it [to not say ask questions to the void], you can't convince it of the things it has already been programmed to say, you can't make it reason at all, you are talking to a monitor, literally. And what you get in response is simply a simulation of speech, a mimicry of reason and consciousness, but never the real deal. TL;DR: AI is just like any old Internet search engine, just with extra steps of interaction. It searches and finds whatever it has been uploaded with, and presents those results accordingly. If those results are good or bad, accurate or not, it doesn't matter for it.

His argument against god here contains a fallacy, as we can just say thaf god didn't create the existence, he just created a piece of it that doesn't contain him, very simple.

[@5BBassist4Christ]

That is actually probably the best argument for atheism I've ever heard. I agree with your point that there aren't really any logical arguments for atheism, but rather only polemics. Ironically, most of the arguments "for atheism" I find work just as well for Deism. The Problem of Evil, Divine Hiddenness, contradictions/errors/abhorrent passages in sacred scriptures, -all of these arguments could just as easily be answered by Deism. Not that God does not exist, but that the religious institutions of the world haven't actually figured God out. What makes this argument good is that it actually does pose a logical contradiction to God's existence itself. A.) God created existence, B.) God couldn't exist prior to creating existence, Conclusion: God does not exist. The problem with this argument is that it will inevitably destroy every answer we ever suggest. No matter what we say caused existence, -that thing could not have existed to have caused existence. If no thing could exist to cause existence, then existence can never be created. But here we are. Therefore, since nothing can exist according to the logic of this argument, we must instead concur that something supreme of causality itself exists, with existence as its core feature, and with existence as its great outpouring. That Great Existence, however, is exactly what theists say when they cite the Divine Name: I AM.

[@5BBassist4Christ]

P.S. I have also run a similar thought experiment to disprove any polytheistic religion. What ever this Great Existence is, it must be one in nature. For if there are Two Great Existences, then they must have this thing in common, -that they exist. But if two things hold existence in common, then they are both beholden to the properties of existence, and therefore are causes of existence rather than the foundation of existence. This of course does not mean the Great Existence could not have created "lesser gods", but by traditional theism, those lesser beings are not what we would define as "God".

[@LomuHabana]

There is a difference. Questions as “Does a married bachelor exist?” Or “does a square circle exist?” Can easily be answered because they involve logical contradictions. Bachelors are per definition not married, and circles are nit squares by definition. The existence of god is not logically contradictory and involves a synthetic proposition, a statement about the actual world. And in this context, no, it is not possible to prove the absence of such a thing.

[@robertdolcetti450]

I could absolutely argue against the existence of a thing. In the face of ambiguity, we can use the facts that we have available to us in order to argue the likelihood that a thing exists or is real, utilizing logic and extrapolation. You can, in fact, argue for the negative of a synthetic proposition. Atheists have been arguing against the existence of God for years.

[@LomuHabana]

@@robertdolcetti450 you can absolutely argue against it, but you cannot empirically “proof” it (rejected or fail to reject the hypothesis). And it isn’t necessary, because the burden of proof lies with the one asserting the existence of something. What you can do is find evidence for a particular proposition/position that entails the absence of god, or at least the absents of the Christian god. Many atheists are also naturalists. Naturalism is, in contrast to atheism, a worldview. But naturalism entails atheism to a certain extend. But in the end, it gets quite philosophical because naturalism has a different view on existence than other worldviews like Christianity.

And you don’t need to, because the burden of proof lies with the one asserting the existence. What you can do is arguing for a position that entails the absence of existence of some thing. For example, Naturalism, which in contrast to atheism IS a worldview, entails the absence of god(s). But even there it gets quite philosophical quickly because Naturalism has a different view/definition on/of “existence” as other world views, like Christianity. What most atheists (like myself) do, is specifically arguing against the Christian god/the Christian world view. That is easier than arguing against any god in general.

Also: ask him why he wouldn't go all the way with the argument? that's *usually* a good idea, agreeing that anything profound enough to have fine-tuned the *universe* is NOT something you should want to fool around with: anything that powerful is easily able to wipe everything out without even thinking about doing so; so take care, but it behooves you to investigate what and who you're really dealing with in that kind of case; as a ruler will a foreign power that could feasibly pose a threat.

For the sake of argument, if God doesn't exist, how did the universe come into existence from nothing? Or did the universe create itself? The idea that 'I made myself' or 'you made yourself' is illogical because it implies that something can exist before it exists, which is a contradiction. Additionally, if everything came from nothing, how can nothingness, which has no existence, produce something? Furthermore, if the universe can't come into existence by itself, how can God come into existence? God never 'came' into existence because He is beyond time. We can only affirm His existence through these arguments, but we cannot imagine or explain how He exists. This is logical, given that He is superior to us and our minds cannot comprehend Him. We can't even fully imagine the universe and its vast creations, so how can we expect to imagine the Creator?

Makes no difference how it's spun, both theism and naturalism ultimately end up as circular arguments in presuppositions, but only theism is logically internally consistent. If the precepts of naturalism is true, it's almost certainly false. God is not the conclusion to a syllogism, he is the only way any syllogism can exist.

[@iiddrrii6051]

How is naturalism inconsistent? I think Theism can generally be interpreted as internally consistent because humans can always accommodate inconsistencies - basically explain them away.

@@iiddrrii6051 What is the definition of naturalism ?

[@iiddrrii6051]

@@sparkyy0007 I believe methodological naturalism is most reasonable. "limiting itself to natural causes, science can produce reliable, consistent, and testable hypotheses about the workings of the universe. It allows for predictions and experiments that can be replicated and scrutinized under controlled conditions. This approach does not necessarily deny the existence or possibility of supernatural elements, but it argues that such considerations are outside the scope of scientific inquiry. In essence, methodological naturalism maintains a clear boundary between what can be empirically observed and tested and what falls into the realm of metaphysical or theological speculation. This boundary enables a practical framework for scientific investigation, ensuring that it remains grounded in observable and verifiable"

[@sparkyy0007]

@@iiddrrii6051 Let's boil it down to the dictionary definition of naturalism as stated in the OP and avoid the philosophical fluff. Webster naturalism: noun 2) a theory denying that an event or object has a supernatural significance specifically : the doctrine that scientific laws are adequate to account for all phenomena Agree ?

[@iiddrrii6051]

​@@sparkyy0007 Very close. It's crucial to clarify that it's not about denying the supernatural. It's acknowledging that it's a category error to intermingle science WITH supernatural claims. Because, by definition, supernatural claims cannot be measured or reliably reproduced.

[@chissstardestroyer]

Well: HE certainly is NOT the essence of existence: as you and I are NOT even *IN* Him, let alone Him HImself; so He is merely one of our many neighbors- and that's also supported by Christ's existence as yet another man, while He is clearly significantly more than a mere man.

The truth is that many different people believe in many different god's and many people believe no god exists. None of them can prove their belief is anything more than belief. The next next thing to consider is that people created language. For whatever reasons languages have changed many many times, evolved you might say. So god has only been only god since the English language began. I believe if god was all powerful and people were created in his image all people would believe in one god only, call god by one name and use the language god supplied to people as part of the image package. That would also mean there would only be one race.

[@BigIdeaSeeker]

“There’s no such thing as a married bachelor” is a matter of definition. Proving the negation of God’s existence is an entirely different kind of negative to prove. Crazy that Brian equivocates here. Further, he defines god as a general power deity. As an atheist I make no claims to that god an don’t care if it exists. My argument is against the Christian deity. It does not exist. Have that talk with Chat GPT. Christian god already rides on the coattails of general deity. Why in the world is his name God? Xtianity is cheap.

[@reinedire7872]

His name isn't God. He simply IS God. In Hebrew, all Yahweh means is "is."

[@asggerpatton7169]

Is not a matter of definition, since one automatically negates its opposite. Something can and can't exist at the same time. Also, you are an agnostic and not an atheist, since disbelief in a God that cannot be reasoned without revelation(the christian god) is not a matter of pure reason. You start rejecting the theist God's existence because you don't like what the bible has to say about women, which is not a matter of pure reason.

[@BigIdeaSeeker]

@@reinedire7872 Sure. My point is that he is referred to as “God” (at least in America) constantly and almost exclusively. Nearly nobody calls him Yahweh or Adonai, or any of his other names or attributes. He is thus “God”. So when someone poses the question- ‘does god exist?’ most people are thinking of him. To that question (and that individual) I’d say emphatically and assertively that no, he does not exist. Happy to take on the burden of proof there as well. But if one more accurately asked if ‘a god’ exists, I would claim agnosticism. This muddies the waters of discourse significantly. Most atheists don’t care about some vague undefined entity that may be out there. But the concept of the well-defined (however inconsistently) Christian god is the source of a lot of problems here on earth. You all could solve a hell of a lot of problems in debate if you would all call him YHWH or whatever name you choose. Even Brian here backs up to make his term more vague for Chat GPT to consider. And most of the evangelical christians I’ve mentioned Yahweh or Jehovah to have no idea what I’m talking about. We should all be igtheists- define what you mean by “god” when you speak of it.

[@BigIdeaSeeker]

@@asggerpatton7169 True, I am agnostic toward an unnamed deity. However, I am assertively atheistic toward Christian (or Muslim, Hindu, etc) god. What in the world makes you think you know my reasons or motivation? That’s silly. You’ve missed the mark there.

If God has the existence itself in it, then since we exist, we have a part of god in us. This leads us to panteism which is really different than monotheism. Also a christian cannot be monotheist, especially a catholic one. Holy trinity is there, it is trinity not singularity for a reason.
