"can submarines swim"
It's a funny phrase people use to somehow discredit AI, like it isn't really 'thinking', AI 'thinking' is like a submarine 'swimming'. But doesn't really provide much insight.
Let's say a submarine can't swim. Thus, by inference, AI can't think.
So what, the submarine still beats every human in every swim competition. The submarine dominates the humans, literally destroys them, churns them into chum. No human can beat a submarine swimming.
And thus also with AI 'thinking'. OK by funny analogy, AI does not 'think'.
Again, so what, if whatever it is doing is completely dominating humans. We can argue all day that AI is not 'thinking' can't 'reason', but if it is doing whatever it is doing better than humans, then it still destroys the humans.
