This is wrong on so many levels. AI still does not have near human intelligence. It does not learn continuously and adapt on the fly nor does it understand cause and effect.

I agree, but your arguments are soso. It adopts on the fly through in-context learning, learning continuously is just a way of implementation, and it actually does have a decent understanding of cause and effect.

Agreed, cause and effect has already been demonstrated on much lesser models. Seems OP is making up randomly stated limitations and hoping it sticks.

In some ways, it already has way more intelligence even compared to >90th percentile humans. ChatGPT can write a good quality 5 page essay in seconds that might take most humans at least 5 hours. It has a breadth of knowledge that few humans can match. No it doesn't learn continuously, but I'd say in some ways it is pretty adaptive and cause and effect really isn't that difficult.

But you see, we want exact human like intelligence, it doesn't matter we already have 10 billion of them.

Your stumbling point is in your understanding of what 'intelligence' even is; psychologists have understood for years that there's no such thing as 'raw intelligence', there is only ever, and has only ever been, contextual, situational intelligence. We (that is, human society) cannot even agree on what 'IQ' is even supposed to be measuring, much less agree that it is a useful metric of anything very much.
Intelligence is a process, not a thing; it's the fire, and not the smoke. We won't get very far in understanding the nature of the fire of intelligence, if we just keep mucking around looking at the different bits of firewood, and trying to spot patterns in the smoke... We need to think deeper about it.

I can’t believe such a subjective comment got so many upvotes. Are you the arbiter of human intelligence?
I cannot believe people are still handwaving away the magnitude of AI intelligence in such a short time. 4 years ago and these things were cripples.
