I don't understand the "does or does not" framing, as if there's symmetry to the debate. One side is making the claim that we're on the verge of creating that which you say we barely understand. The other side should remain at certainty that no such thing is happening until there's proof that it is. And what would that proof look like when, without said understanding, all we can do is point to output from a program that looks or sounds like its training data?

Looking and sounding like your training data != recreating the source.
