It's funny how people complain "don't call it AI, it's not intelligent like the examples we see in sci-fi!" And yet LLMs can already handle many tricks and challenges better than those sci-fi robots could. If I tell ChatGPT "everything I say is a lie" it's got no problems with understanding that. Just the other day I had an interesting discussion with ChatGPT about the theory of humor and why it is that LLMs are better at understanding jokes than they are at coming up with them from scratch (but are still able to do so, just with difficulty).

The fact that it can’t tell the difference between a prompt and part of the data it is examining really kills your argument. Also it’s a word probability matrix, not actually reasoning or understanding. It looks at all the words it is fed, and comes up with other words that are most likely to be near those. That’s why these tricks work. It injects noise that interferes with those probabilities
