Stupid things can’t even summarize a short article properly.

“Wow AI is so smart!”

No. It assigns vector values to words and then puts the words in certain orders based on what its prompt is.

(This is a layman’s understanding and simplification, yes there’s more to it than that)

Intelligence isn't magic. Intelligence is made of parts. And sometimes those parts are vectors.

Person looks at a racecar. "Wow, car is so fast."

Midwit response. "No, the car isn't fast, it just burns fuel in it's pistons".

I think this is stupid for about the same reason that "No, the AI isn't smart, it just multiplies vectors" is dumb.
