Thank you for being sensible We have so many "intelligence professors", who can conveniently dismiss SoTA AIs with a sleight of hand (Cholet, LeCunn etc), yet completely ignore the superintelligent traits these AIs already exhibit.

FYI: SoTA AIs can think and reason. They're far far away from mere memorization & retrieval. They aren't human yet, nor do we expect them to be. They'll just keep getting ever better in their own ways, and become super duper useful for practically everything as computer buddies first, agents next, robots next next.

The "intelligence professors" I'm hoping will at some point shut up and accept that "functional/universal approximation" is all you need, which is abundantly done by neural nets of today.
