I suspect gp means thinking in a way that is different from being able to reason. The ability to use any manner of inference or logic to arrive at correct answers does not constitute thought, even if the question was hard. But in general I’m in agreement about the duck. Existing LLMs can already “think” in a non-philosophical sense far better and faster than many adults walking around. Most folks do not Consider the Lobster anyway and would likely not pay much attention to the details of its difference from a brain.
