Gary Marcus 演示掷骰子比抛硬币更随机，讽刺随机性与意识无关
Gary Marcus 用掷骰子和 rand() 函数抬杠，讽刺“随机性等于意识”的说法，顺带点名众议员 Lieu，挺好笑又说到点子上。
Gary Marcus 发帖称自己做实验发现六面骰的结果波动比抛硬币更大，按“越随机越有意识”的逻辑骰子应比硬币更有意识，Python 的 rand() 甚至可能是超级智能。他借此讽刺一种观点：把 LLM 输出的随机性当作意识的证据。Marcus 指出 LLM 中的随机性来自 temperature 采样和服务器动态等多个来源，这些都不能让矩阵运算产生意识。他还提到美国众议员 Ted Lieu 在这一问题上的相关表态，建议公众去读其观点。
update: i did some experiments and rolling six-sided dice produced more variable results than flipping pennies, so I guess dice are more conscious than pennies? and python’s rand() function is so unpredictable it may actually be … Super Intelligence. Gary Marcus @GaryMarcus My dice are conscious!! Shut down every casino now, for slave-trading!! Either that or read what Congressman Lieu is trying to tell you. [There are actually multiple sources of randomness in LLMs, including temperature but also the dynamics of servers, but none of them make matrix math conscious.] 🔗 View Quoted Tweet 💬 1 🔄 0 ❤️ 7 👀 836 📊 1 ⚡
