Intelligence is not magic though. The difference between intelligence and mathematics can plausibly be the same kind of difference between chemistry and intelligence.

There is Intelligence and there is Imitation of Intelligence. LLMs do the latter.

Talk to any model about deep subjects. You ll understand what I am saying. After a while it will start going around in circles.

FFS ask it to make an original joke, and be amused..

    so like your average human

    let's try this one on you - say an original joke

    oh, right, you dont respond to strangers prompts, thus you have agency, unlike an LLM

      If an average human has seen and read all that is written till now, I bet that they can hold the conversation going for quite a long time...

      >say an original joke

      I asked an LLM if it had a good night with sweet dreams, It said, "I don't sleep and I only dream when I work!"
