Could you share a conversation link with GPT-4 with either about a "list" or a "dog", to determine whether it truly understands one of those things compared to a human?
"""I think dogs are wonderful! They're known for their loyalty, playfulness, and their ability to bring joy to people's lives. What about you? Do you have a favorite breed or dog story?"""
This reply sounds so fake that in my opinion should be enough to rule out any hint of intelligence. However if you insist I'd continue with this:
"I'm not a fan of dogs. I do know a few dogs though. Sometimes I invite my neighbour's dog for dinner. He's got good taste, for a dog. The last time he came around we talked about the situation in the Middle East. Do you know a good book about this topic that I could recommend to him?"
