Nope, it’s only matching the prompt with the most likely answer from its training set. Do you remember in the early days when it would be asked slightly tweaked riddles and it would get them incorrectly, it’d just spew out something that sounded like the original answer but was completely wrong in the current context? Or how it just made up nonexistent court cases for that one lawyer that tried to use it without actually checking if it’s correct?
LLMs are just guessing the answer based on millions of similar answers they have been trained with. It’s a language syntax generator, it has no clue what it is actually saying. They are extremely advanced and getting better at hiding their flaws but at their core, they are not actual intelligence.
I know this, I’ve worked on LLMs and other neural networks so I was wondering what kind of difference you could make out. Humans do the same thing, they just have more neurons and use more sophisticated training modes and activation mechanisms as well as propagation patterns.
So what I’m saying is that you can’t tie intelligence to the fundamental mechanism because it’s the same, only humans are more developed. And maturity on the other hand is a highly subjective and arbitrary criterion—when is the system mature enough to be considered intelligent?

@Kaldo @Viktorian they also can’t count how many Ns are in the word mayonnaise
