What's the difference between a human and a talking parrot that can answer any question you ask it?

The talking parrot can only answer by repeating something it heard before.

Another question you could ask is “What’s the difference between a conversation between 2 people and a conversation between 2 parrots who can answer any question?”

  • It doesn't only repeat things it's heard before. Have you ever talked with an LLM?

  • I had ChatGPT design a programming language for a specific uncommon purpose and then use it. It's creative enough.

Can any question be answered? As long as any reaction on a question is considered an answer, then I see no difference between a human and a parrot.
