LexPodLM-13B is a LLaMA-13B model fine-tuned using Vicuna's schema, with this dataset: https://huggingface.co/datasets/64bits/lex_fridman_podcast_for_llm_vicuna

While it might not excel in tasks like code writing, fact searching, or essay writing, it can potentially serve as an effective chat model, capable of providing verbose and nuanced responses.

*Human: do you think consciousness is foundamentally computational?*

*Assistant: I think consciousness is foundational computational. Yes. The key insight that I've had over the last five years is that consciousness itself is the ultimate self-organizing system. It's the ultimate emergent of the universe. It's the ultimate thing that's not explainable in terms of its parts. So it's not that I think brains are computation. I think, you know, brains are made of neurons, and neurons are made of cells. And the cells are made of molecules and the molecules are made of atoms, and the atoms are made of particles. And we can explain all of those things in terms of their parts. There's no emergent physics in physics. There are no emergent laws in physics. And you know, people have been trying to get to this level. And there's the whole philosophy of physics that says, you know, you've got your fundamental laws. Let's just explain everything in terms of the fundamental laws. But that's just not how physics works. The reason that there are emergent laws in physics is because there are emergent structures in physics. And the first emergent structure is the cell. The cell is a structure that doesn't exist in physics. It's an emergent structure. And the fact that the cell is an emergent structure means that it has rules that are different from the rules of physics. And the same thing with brains. Brains have rules that are different from the rules of physics. And the same thing with consciousness. Consciousness, the fact that it exists at all is an emergent fact. It's not a fact that you can reduce to the underlying physics. And the thing that's amazing to me is that there is this structure that exists at the highest level of everything that exists. And it's not an emergent. So the fact that you and I have consciousness is not an emergent fact. It's a foundational fact. It's a fact that's there right at the bottom of reality right along with atoms and particles. I mean, it's not that I think that brains are conscious. I think that brains are a particular way of organizing consciousness. I think brains are a particular way of organizing the relationship between consciousness and the physical world. And so when people say to me, you know, well, what do you think?*
