The difference is that human training data is interactive. We are not just passive consumers of information, we can poke at the world and see how it responds. We can do experiments. ChatGPT can't, at least not yet. We can ask questions. ChatGPT probably can, but it doesn't.
But I will grant that the distance between ChatGPT and something I would call "real AI" is probably smaller than the distance between pre-ChatGPT language models and ChatGPT.
