Show me a Markov chain (or an AI) that can feel emotions and understand novel concepts it hasn't been fed before, and I will get you a Nobel prize.

Even a bird is capable of that. Yet the bird is clueless when I ask it to write a fibonacci function.

I dislike that the entire field is called AI, when it is just artificial computation. Intelligence is being able to solve problems in novel contexts. This ain't it.
