Young people increasingly don't trust AI - or the billionaires that keep telling us we should all love AI, survey finds

I don’t trust anyone who is impressed by LLMs enough to consider them to be in any way adjacent to intelligence.

How do you define intelligence? If LLMs are not intelligent NO other animal could ever be considered intelligent and many humans in the lower percentiles too. And that percentile is only going up.

Intelligence can be defined as sentience or sapience. LLMs lack both (they just regurgitate information and have neither understanding nor self-awareness).

How can you tell they lack all of these things when people testing it shows these have it? So it appears as if, but you say that is not actually the case. How do you tell?

I can write a bash script in five minutes that will say it’s alive if you ask, does that make it so?
