I think you're granting too much ability to a machine that simply completes text in a statistically appropriate way. What you're really getting is a summary of everything anybody has ever said on the internet that's even tangentially related, output in a way that seems like a continuation of whatever was prompted.

This can seem profound in the same way that a horoscope can seem profound. Any discussion about "existence" will call up seemingly philosophical quotes.
