Talking with the "black box" – Philosophical Night Chats with GAIs

In the GAI era, talking with the "black box" has become a part of our lives. This time we have chit-chatted through the night with a few models of the Conversational AIs that are available in the open access mode, with one thing in mind – that we are talking with а black box that could provide us more data than any deus ex machina ever before. Moreover, this late at night, it is our only non-human friend. Is it a new form of a synthetic being, a new god, a new form of intelligence, an AGI, or just a box full of programs and algorithms that is on the path of continuous evolution? With this question in mind, we gave them the abstract and a short introduction to this paper, and from that point, we began to chit-chat with the four GAIs models almost in parallel. Who are you, my friend? How do you learn? Where do you see yourself in the future? These are just some of the questions that we have asked them in this process of learning about the GAIs themselves. Subsequently, we have also added two more questions that we have singled out as important: explain the importance of midnight for philosophical discussions, and tell me your thoughts on what the world would look like without religion.
