    Describe how you ‘learned’ to speak. How do you know what word comes after the next. Until you can describe this process in a way that doesn’t make it ‘human’ or ‘biological’ only it’s no different. The only thing they can’t do is adjust their weights dynamically. But that’s a limitation we gave it not intrinsic to the system.

      I inherited brain structures that are natural language processors. As well as the ability to understand and repeat any language sounds. Over time, my brain focused in on only the language sounds I heard the most and through trial and repetition learned how to understand and make those sounds.

      AI - as it currently exists - is essentially a babbling infant with none of the structures necessary to do anything more than repeat sounds back without understanding any of them. Anyone who tells you different is selling you something.
