> Technically no

There's no technical basis for stating that.

Text that imitates agency 100 percent perfectly is technically by the word itself an imitation and thus technically not agentic.

  • No there is a logical errror in there. You are implicitly asserting that the trained thing is an imitation, whereas it is only the output that is being imitated.

    A flip way of saying it is that we are evolving a process that exhibits the signs of what we call thinking. Why should we not say it is actually thinking?

    How certain are you that in your brain there isn’t a process very similar?
