ProfileGPT: An Example of AI Agents Collaboration Architecture

According to what definition of “extract information” are these ChatGPT agents extracting information?

Even granting a sense in which the above claim is true (perhaps limited to cases where the yielded text is actually true of the user), you make repeated claims that the agents can “predict,” “analyze,” and “infer.” There is more to prediction, analysis, and inference than the representation in natural language of those things. Just because ChatGPT produces sentences which have those linguistic forms (and even if those sentences are true) does not mean we can rightly climb ChatGPT can actually perform those activities. This is a problem with so much of the commentary around ChatGPT: it can produce the natural language outputs of some cognitive processes, but it does mean it performs those processes per se.

And that is fine! ChatGPT can plausibly be described as performing its own very special and powerful kind of generalized reasoning, I just think we should be careful attributing to it processes just because it can produce the corresponding linguistic forms.

Put another way, words like “inference” have a dual meaning: they refer to a type of utterance with a certain form and they refer to a specific process of reasoning. Production of the former does not prove the presence of the latter.

Along similar lines, why say your “Psychoanalyst” agent was “designed… [with] 20 years of experience in the field of profiling”? In what sense is that even remotely true? Better just to say “it was inspired by an expert with 20 years of experience, and we hope it performs with that level of competence.” But then why “20 years”? Would performance at the level of a 30-year professional be considered failure?

But don't read too much into how well this does or doesn't work. Some will do more. Some will do it more accurately. Some will do it with the same accuracy, or less accuracy, which can also be very bad.

Also be aware that, for every person concerned about the public interest, there are countless others who are looking at this through the lens of personal/business advancement, which has been normalized in our techbro circles. So, when you're raising awareness to the public, you're also attracting more sharks to the public beach, and handing a `git clone` starting point to aspiring new sharks.

The ban was because ChatGPT isn't complying with the GDPR, nothing to do with ai safety, as their are no ai safety regulations, at least not yet.

Isn’t psychohistory not able to predict individual behaviors and only effective on large numbers?

Of course it will depend on the quality of the search data. But this gives me ideas of other applications.
