Yes! This is a brilliant explanation of why language use is not the same as intelligence, and why LLMs like chatGPT are not intelligence. At all.

New technology comes out and all people seem interested in is bashing it instead of figuring it how to use it to make our lives easier.

Most of it comes from the way our society is structured to require everyone to have a job or starve pretty much, but if AI is making so many jobs obsolete shouldn't we be trying to change that instead of pretending AI won't keep advancing?
