@mxchara@cyberpunk.lol The best chess engines have been able to beat world champions in individual matches since the 90s. It is not just statistical anomalies. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_chess_engines LLMs by contrast don't write better explanations about topics than leading experts, & never can because they just produce more stuff which is similar to whatever they were trained on. IQ tests are not easy to score for LLMs because they involve division by age. Saying Grok has an IQ of 160 due to being only 2 years old would be ridiculous even by Musk standards, hence why he hasn't done it yet despite his IQ obsession. Dawkins thinks they are intelligent because he doesn't know how they work & is studying them how he would study a newly discovered species of animal(of course, the most "intelligent" animals are whichever are the easiest to anthropomorphize). The CEOs think they are intelligent because, well, they probably don't actually & are merely lying to everyone for business reasons. If they do actually believe their own bullshit, this is because it is hard to get someone to understand something when their paycheck depends on them not understanding it, to paraphrase Upton Sinclair.
