There is a very big difference between language generation and true intelligence.

Oh, funny that you say that.

Modern LLMs show empirically that the "difference" is fuzzy at best. You can try to draw a distinction. You can try to draw the lines in the sand and define "true intelligence" in a way that would include humans but exclude "false intelligence" of Mythos 5. An exercise in vanity, in my eyes.

Or you can go with "any sufficiently advanced language generation is indistinguishable from intelligence" and drop the matter. My advice is to do exactly that.
