Let it go, man. I think that you are wilfully misinterpreting what both he and I are saying and being obtuse to boot. Whatever the case, we're clearly not going to convince one another.
Most of this is very simply telling you what he's said. I'd recommend you read the link you pointed me to, because it contains exactly what I've told you is in there. Closed source transformer models and decision trees and yolo models have knowledge and are AI, chatgpt he argues does not. That's not an argument I'm trying to convince you of, I'm just telling you exactly what he's written.
