Are you sure? That's it? I seriously doubt it. Your claim too heavily relies on a presupposition of what is to be shown. Somewhere between the four fundamental forces and us is zillions of light years of unexplored blue sky. Please meet the rest of us there

Not really clear what you are unclear about. My main point is that human beings have sentience and can reason about cobtext in terms of how an action affects others. Computers are following a statistical algorithm without any sentience or any understanding beyond the statistical thresholds. Ignoring the complexity and brilliant mathematics, it is at the core no different than a key word matcher like the classic application "eliza". Its performance is amazing but it is really the same algorithm at its core.
