alt Hacker NewsI would understand to read this kind of articles in 2023ish, but for what they can do now... It is not even if they are "intelligent" is what intelligence even is. I think it is undeniable that there is a level of capacity increasing with each new model, and how would you call that? There is an illusion in LLM's, but that illusion, in my point of view, is about how much of an "entity" each chat bot is, not if they are capable of mimic intelligence or not.
LLMs are not intelligent for the simple reason that if you had as much knowledge as an LLM has, you would be churning out deductions and new discoveries every second. You'd be putting out Nobel-prize-worthy research every month.
LLMs are like a 50 IQ person with no intrinsic motivation but unbelievably vast knowledge and near-perfect recall.
