It's not. It's a query-retrieval system that can parse human language. Just like every LLM.

I can't help being astounded by the confidence with which humans hallucinate completely improbable explanations for phenomena they don't understand at all.
It's a device for channeling the intelligence inherent in human language. The fact that its intelligence is located more in its human data than its artificial algorithms doesn't make its output less generally intelligent.

And humans aren't general AI either. They're just DNA replicators. It is very obvious when you realize that humans weren't designed to be intelligent. They were just randomly iterated through an environment which selected for maximum DNA replication.
Until you have a higher being which explicitly designs for intelligence, you'll just get things like LLM query-retrievals, or DNA replicators.
