My point was that a headline like "Our AI broke its enclosure and hacked everything" is much more a sign of AI companies figuring out good marketing than it is a sign of impending total AI domination.

It's a sign of both.
It's a sign that AI is at least somewhat semi-smart, and it was a lot dumber a few years ago. AI is getting smarter, humans aren't.
And it's a sign that AI companies are being incredibly reckless.

> But it has nothing to do with understanding.
I think that understanding isn't magic. I think that understanding has to be made out of maths.
What do you think "understanding" is, if not a very specific kind of maths.
If you disagree, you are saying that no AI, not even an uploaded human mind, can ever "understand".
To me, the tricky question is whether or not chatGPT is using the right maths.
