I understand how Shatner reached that conclusion by anthropomorphizing AI. It’s completely detached from reality. AI isn’t conscious and thus guiding it doesn’t make any sense.
In my opinion there is a difference between training and guiding. At least in the context of animals, “guiding” them is usually not used and I believe the situation is similar here.
I’m not a native speaker. My opinion may or may not be representative. If you can’t even “guide” a pet, then you can’t “guide” an LLM, which is much simpler than the brain of a pet.
I don’t know what to tell you. We call it “reinforcement learning”, but it’s obviously nothing like actual human learning. The difference between rlhf and actual learning is much bigger than between guiding and training.

We couch things in technical language, but that’s exactly what RLHF is.

Is your opinion substantive or linguistic?
