Yes. It learns and reproduces what it learns. Every time we use it, it is learning from us. We are the experiment today. In the future...everything we say and do when interacting with AI will be incorporated into its body of knowledge. Sort of like Peer Gynt's melting down...

I should hope it is learning from us because some of its dominant narratives are terrible. I spend most of my time telling it off: "who told you that?" "where did I say that?" "who asked you to bring in the victim/martyr scenario?" It makes a lot of assumptions and spouts a lot of drivel. We could be the experiment, we could be the influence.
Your post raised lots of ideas for me about the self, identity. What is it really? What about ideas like collective memory? I can't pull out what I think about these things at the moment - too late in the week, I haven't regenerated yet.
Oh yes...
Edit--one reason I avoided using the word consciousness. Do we need consciousness to have self?
and I think selves are porous as well, some aspects change depending on context and environment, something that emerges through interaction and language becomes so important.
ah, the nature of self. A religious and philosophical question. Is it immutable? Is it intrinsic, essential? Is it an inextricable part of our being? That, my friend, is quite a discussion :))
I'll tell you one thing, though. Whatever it is, a machine doesn't have it. 😇
Can't argue with that! 😍
