You keep asking questions like "can a model build a house" but keep ignoring questions like "can an octopus build a house". Then asking "can a model learn in seconds how to escape from a complex enclosure" and then ignoring "can a newborn human baby do that?"
Can an octopus write a poem? Can a baby write an essay? Can an adult human speak every human language, including fictional languages?
Just because it isn't as intelligent as a human doesn't mean this isn't some type if intelligence.
Go and check what we call AI in videogames. Do you think that's a simulated human? Go see what we've been calling AI in chess. Is that a simulated human being playing chess? No.
We've been calling Artificial intelligence things that are waaaaaay dumber than GPTs for decades. Even in the academia. Suddenly a group of people decided "artificial intelligence must be equal to human intelligence". Nope.
Intelligence doesn't need to be the same type of human intelligence.
