They're Made Out of Weights

In a conversational narrative inspired by Terry Bisson's "They're Made Out of Meat", the author explores an absurd yet provocative idea that AI language models are primarily made of 'weights'—a concept grounded in machine learning. The dialogue critiques the understanding of AI, suggesting that these weights are the basis of reasoning and knowledge, challenging the notion of sentience. Insights into the nature of AI, including its limitations and user interactions, are presented, resulting in a commentary on our relationship with these technologies.
