A large language model is giving you the statistically most likely words to your prompt, weighted by prettymuch everything written online. You would describe that as “intelligent”?
Intelligence is a description of capability, not the means by which the capability is achieved. So if the output looks intelligent then the process is intelligent regardless of how it works. The difference between natural and artificial intelligence is how the intelligence is achieved - what you’re describing doesn’t match any intelligence found in nature so if it produces intelligent output then it’s artificially intelligent.
Consciousness is separate from intelligence and I never brought it up.
So would you describe “statistically likely” to be the same as “intelligent”?
Statistically likely to…what? I don’t understand what you’re trying to say.
