Lol, the AI effect in practice - the minute a computer can do it, it's no longer intelligence.

A year ago if you had told me you had a computer program that could write greentexts compellingly, I would have told you that required "true" AI. But now, eh.

In any case, LLMs are clearly short of the "SuPeR BeInG" that the term "AI" seems to make some people think of and that you get all these Boomer stories about, and what we've got now definitely isn't that.

The AI effect can't be a real thing since true AI hasn't been done yet. We're getting closer, but we're definitely not in the positronic brain stage yet.

"true AI"

AI is just "artificial intelligence", there are no strict criterias defining what is "true" AI and not,

Do the LLM models show an ability to reason and problem solve? Yes

Are they perfect? No

So what?

Ironically your comment sounds like yet another example of the AI effect
