"The heart of the current euphoric expectations for AI is a simple but problematic proposition: the equivalence of function equals intelligence. If using natural language requires intelligence, and a computer can use natural language, then it's intelligent. If it takes intelligence to compose an essay on Charles Darwin, and an AI program can compose an essay on Charles Darwin, then the AI program is intelligent.
"The problem here is this "equivalence is proof of intelligence" is a function of word-traps and false logic, not actual equivalence; what is claimed to be be equivalent isn't equivalent at all. In other words, the source of confusion is how we choose to define "intelligence," which is itself a word-trap..."

Selective timing.
Curated narratives.
Carefully engineered confusion.
Enough to distract.

“Here’s an uncomfortable truth about the Epstein accusations: We only find them morally reprehensible because of Christianity. Before the spread of Christianity, ‘civilized’ Greek and Roman elites openly flaunted underage s*x slaves. This was normal.

–Paul Anleitner
