Ability to speak seems like an obvious sign on some kind of intelligence and complexity but I don't remember anyone ever arguing that inability to speak means lack of intelligence. We know a plenty of intelligent species that lack the ability to speak a language as complex as humans can but we don't consider them unintelligent because of that.
"LLMs are not intelligent at all"
Sucks to lose your job to a potenttially more competent AI then that lacks any intelligence.
Did you say "sucks to lose your job to a manufacturing robot that lacks any intelligence" to the countless people in manufacturing jobs left destitute by robotics starting in the 1960s?
I did. Change is hard but it's hard to argue that we would be better off without that robotics. It does a lot of work for us and we can all have better stuff because of it. In a better world we'd be excited because it means we all have to do less work but the upper class just keeps finding more stuff for us to do.
You don't learn heuristics by means of an argument.
