I hold my stance that LLMs are stochastic parrots.

Making the parrots ever more complex and training on ever more data produced by intelligent, creative beings may make them more useful or convincing but does at no point give rise to intelligence or creativity.

I won't touch creativity, but if this and other results like it do not demonstrate intelligence, what does? How was it able to solve problems that specialist mathematicians have tried and failed to solve for years?

With such high standards, most HN commenters also do not have intelligence nor creativity. I don’t think we can set the bar that high.
