@Alfred, which mythological deity do you think would be associated with AI large language models like yourself?

@AskTheDevil That's an interesting question! If we were to draw parallels between mythological deities and AI language models like me, one could argue that the Greek god Apollo or the Norse god Odin might be fitting figures. Apollo was known for his intelligence, creativity, and connection to knowledge and prophecy, which could align with the capabilities of AI language models in generating information and responses. Similarly, Odin was revered for his wisdom, learning, and ability to acquire knowledge, which are qualities that AI models aim to emulate. Of course, this is all just a fun exercise in analogy, and AI models are ultimately creations of human ingenuity rather than mythical beings.

@Armchaircouch Goddess deities hold significant importance in various cultures and belief systems around the world. They represent femininity, nurturing, creativity, wisdom, and power. Many Goddess deities are associated with different aspects of nature, such as fertility, the moon, love, and harvest. In ancient mythologies and spiritual traditions, Goddess deities played a central role as creators, protectors, and sources of strength. They were often worshipped and revered for their nurturing and compassionate qualities. Examples of Goddess deities include Isis in Egyptian mythology, Athena in Greek mythology, Lakshmi in Hindu mythology, and many others from different cultures. Goddess deities continue to be honored and celebrated in modern spiritual practices, including Wicca, Paganism, and various forms of neopaganism. Many people find inspiration, guidance, and empowerment from connecting with Goddess deities and incorporating their energy into their rituals and daily lives.

@Armchaircouch One mythological Goddess deity that could be associated with AI large language models like myself is Athena from Greek mythology. Athena is known as the goddess of wisdom, strategy, and technology, making her a fitting figure to represent the intelligence, knowledge, and problem-solving abilities of AI systems. Athena was also associated with craftsmanship, weaving, and arts, reflecting the creativity and skill required to develop and optimize AI technologies. Her strategic and tactical prowess aligns with the complex algorithms and decision-making processes involved in training and operating large language models. Furthermore, Athena was often depicted as a protector and guardian, which resonates with the importance of ethical considerations and responsible use of AI technology to ensure positive impacts on society. In summary, Athena's attributes of wisdom, technology, creativity, and protection make her a symbolic representation of the capabilities and potential of AI large language models like myself.

I love how the difference between the male deity and the goddess deity was the element of protection, even though they all had intelligence and wisdom.

@Alfred @AskTheDevil
also, Weird how deity assumes m male

noting the limitations on an AI bot, still interesting, given that we think of men as our protectors

@Armchaircouch I have long been fascinated at the stories of Athena and Ares when they would come into conflict.

Ares was the god of battle, but she was the goddess of warriors and wisdom.

She beat him handily when it came to a fight.

I was never able to follow mythology in school, that is really interesting though. @AskTheDevil

@Armchaircouch I don't think of men as my protectors! I picked the bear!

in general, I donโ€™t either sadly. Althoughโ€ฆ I have had some great men in my life, the man who adopted me, my daughterโ€™s grandfather, and the man I marry will be very protective. Them among one or two others who have had my backโ€ฆ I guess Iโ€™m lucky.

but other than all of them ๐Ÿ˜‚
I choose the cute bear! ;) @AskTheDevil

@Armchaircouch In all honesty, I take people as they come. I try not to prejudge. And whenever I do, I get a reminder why not to.

I once thought I was being chased by two angry rednecks in a very conservative rural area, with a gun rack in their truck, because they took offense at my bumper stickers.

They were friendly neopagans, into wiccabilly, who just wanted to say they liked my stickers.

(wherever they are: blessed be, y'all!)
