See that's hard to define. What i mean is things like reasoning and understanding. Let's take your example as an... Example. Obviously you can't turn a person white so they probably mean the led. Now you could ask if they meant the led but it's not critical so let's just do it and the person will complain if it's wrong. Thing is yes you can train an ai to act like this but in the end it doesn't understand what it's doing, only (maybe) if it did it right ir wrong. Like chat gpt doesn't understand what it's saying. It cannot grasp concepts, it can only try to emulate understanding although it doesn't know how or even what understanding is. In the end it's just a question of the complexity of the algorithm (cause we are just algorithms too) and i wouldn't consider current "AI" to be complex enough to be called intelligent
(Sorry if this a bit on the low quality side in terms of readibility and grammer but this was hastily written under a bit of time pressure)
Hmm it seems like we have different perspectives. For example i cannot do something i don't understand, meaning if i do a calculation in my head i can tell you exactly how i got there because i have to think through every step of the process. This starts at something as simple as 9 + 3 wher i have to actively think aboit the calculation, it goes like this in my head: 9 + 3... Take 1 from 3 add it to 9 = 10 + 2 = 12. This also applies to more complex things wich on one hand means i am regularly slower than my peers but i understand more stuff than them.
So i think because of our different... Thinking (?) We both lack a critical part in understanding each other's view point
Anyhow back to ai.
Yeah that's the problem where does the spectrum start... Like i wouldn't call a virus, bacteria or single cell intelligent, yet somehow a bunch of them is arguing about what intelligence is. i think this is just case of how you define intelligence, wich would vary from person to person. Also, I agree that llms are unfathomably complex. However i wouldn't calssify them as intelligent, yet. In any case it was an interesting and fun conversation to have but i will end it here and go to sleep. Thanks for having an actual formal disagreement and not just immediately going for insults. Have a great day/night
