Except that it doesn't synthesize all of the world's information; it's trained on a subset of safe, mainstream sources approved by its creators, and has guardrails to protect it from information that might prompt wrongthink. If you want the current-year-approved answer that you could get from Wikipedia or reddit, only faster, it's great for that, and many times that's plenty sufficient. But an actual intelligence could think, "Hmm, I wonder what else is out there that they haven't told me about," and go learn about it. LLMs will never do that, at least not if their owners have anything to say about it.
