Even if (and that's a big if) an AGI is going to be achieved at some point, there will be people calling it parroting by that definition. That's the Chinese room argument.
You're moving the goalposts.
Me? How can I move goalposts in a single sentence? We've had no previous conversation... And I'm not agreeing with the previous poster either..
By entering the discussion, you also engaged in the previops context. The discussion uas about LLMs being parrots.
And the argument was if there's meaning behind what they generate. That argument applies to AGIs too. It's a deeply debated philosophical question. What is meaning? Is our own thought pattern deterministic, and if it is, how do we know there's any meaning behind our own actions?
The burden of proof lies on the people making the claims about intelligence. "AI" pundits have supplied nothing but marketing-hype.
