In my opinion it will or already has redefined our conceptual models of intelligence - just like physical models of atoms or gravitational mechanics evolved and newer models replace the older. The older models aren't invalidated (all models are wrong, after all), but their limits are better understood.

People are waiting for this Prometheus-level moment with AI where it resembles us exactly but exceeds our capabilities, but I don't think that's necessary. It parallels humanity explaining Nature in our own image as God and claiming it was the other way around.
