This is classic AI goalposts-moving.
OK, they can play chess, but that's not real AI - can they write poems?
OK, they can write poems, but that's not real AI - can they compose music?
OK, they can compose music, but that's not real AI - can they translate languages?
OK, they can translate text, but can they do maths?
OK, they can do maths, but can they solve a Millenium Prize? <-- we are here
- janalsncm 6d agoImagine meeting a person who could do all of those things. “I once met a person who could beat any grandmaster in chess, translate any language, and complete international math Olympiad problems. He couldn’t solve any Millenium problems though, so I’d say he was a midwit at best.”

"OK he's grown moss. He's a tree now right? Right??" "I doubt it, for I see nothing but wishful thinking to suggest that simulating the appearance of tree characteristics is part of a path to becoming a tree. And that's not actually indistinguishable from moss anyway, is it?" "Urgh, classic goalpost shifting!"
