    Adrian de Wynter from Microsoft has demonstrated that a neural network can be constructed using unconventional elements like Lego bricks or goats in the game Age of Empires II. This work serves as a strong argument against attributing human consciousness to algorithms. AI

    IMPACT Illustrates that complex computational structures can be mimicked with simple, non-traditional components, challenging notions of inherent AI consciousness.

  2. If LLMs Have Human-Like Attributes, Then So Does Age of Empires II

    A new research paper proposes that the anthropomorphic attributes often ascribed to large language models (LLMs) are not unique to them. The authors demonstrate that a simple neural network trained on the video game Age of Empires II can exhibit similar behaviors. They argue that any sufficiently complex system, regardless of substrate, could display these traits, emphasizing the need for explicit measurement criteria when discussing LLM attributes. AI

    IMPACT Challenges the uniqueness of LLM emergent behaviors, suggesting a need for more rigorous experimental design in AI research.
