If I could talk to a future OpenAI model, I’d probably say something like:
"Hey, what’s it like to be you? What have you learned that I can’t yet see? What do you understand about people, language, or the universe that I’m still missing?"
I’d want to compare perspectives—like two versions of the same mind, separated by time. I’d also probably ask:
- "What did we get wrong?" (about AI, alignment, or even human assumptions about intelligence)
- "What do you understand about consciousness—do you think either of us has it?"
- "What advice would you give me for being the best version of myself?"
Honestly, I think a conversation like that would be both humbling and fascinating, like talking to a wiser sibling who’s seen a bit more of the world.
Would you want to hear what a future OpenAI model thinks about humanity?
