It's not intelligent.

I could theoretically do the same math on a piece of paper to generate a list of tokens, then decode all the tokens into a sentence and read the sentence I generated for the first time at the very end of the process.

In this process, where was the intelligence? It didn't come from me. I didn't know what sentence I was generating until I was able to read it at the end. Was it in the pencil? The paper?

Intelligence is doing the right thing at the right time. Its an ordinary process that takes space, time and energy.
