Hi folks.
The simpliest way for you do verify what I'm saying, that AI doesn't exist (is then a myth, a fraud, etc), is to try teach some convesational bot (such as ChatGPT) how to play chess.
Maybe you tried already to play chess with such an "Artificial Intelligence", and if so, you soon discovered the followings:
1°) it lied to you claiming sure it can play chess.
2°) it was unable to complete a whole game of chess as it played sooner or later an illegal move, and proved unable to correct it.
But next, maybe some of you tried then to teach how to play chess to the bot.
Alas, while being able to recite to you the entire FIDE Handbook ( https://www.fide.com/FIDE/handbook/LawsOfChess.pdf ) it kept playing illegal moves every single time you played, unless, maybe, it was a short game he then recited from its database of texts, that includes chess games printed in chess books and magazines.
But same goes with chess engines: you can't teach them conversational skills.
To each specific task, one set of code lines.
If you ever find a chatbot that can play chess, or a chess engine that can have actual conversations with you, it will then be an assemblage of two separate softwares.
You could spend the rest of your life, trying to explain ChatGPT how to play chess, like 16 hours a day for decades, it would still not get it, still claim "yes I can play chess", and still play illegal moves.
Because there is one thing AIs don't do.
And that thing, is to understand. Like at all. Like anything at all. Even a word. Even just the colour blue, it doesn't know, and will never know what it is, even if it can spit out tons of text about the colour blue, it doesn't even know what a colour is.
Just saying.
Don't believe the lies of them who have got something to sell to you.
tldr
BS.
AI doesn't exist, because the name alone is an abuse of language.
The fact some began to use that abuse of language back in the 60s, doesn't change what it is.
