Right? Like, I, too, predict the next word in my sentence to properly respond to inputs with desired output. Sure I have personality (usually) and interests, but that's an emergent behavior of my intelligence, not a prerequisite.

It might not formulate thoughts the way we do, but it absolutely emulates some level of intelligence, artificially.

I think so many people overrate human intelligence, thus causing them to underrate AI. Don’t get me wrong, our brains are amazing, but they’re also so amazing that they can make crazy cool AI that is also really amazing.

People just hate the idea of being meat robots, I don’t blame em.
