Yeah, when I refer to intelligence here I don't mean actual intelligence. AI isn't "smart" (it's not intelligent in the classic sense, it doesn't even think), it's just good at regurgitating what it's been trained on.
But it turns out -- That's kind of what humans do too. It's worth having a philosophical discussion on what intelligence REALLY is.
It's also much less incorrect than your average person would be on a much larger library of content. I think the real litmus test for AI is to compare it to an average person. The average person messes up constantly; also likely covers it up or course-corrects after they've screwed up. I don't think it's fair to expect perfectly correct responses out of AI at all; because there is absolutely no human that could reach those heights at an equal level. Look at competitive knowledge games where AI competes - it stomps some of our most intelligent people, and quite often.
