It does think, just not very logically.

To put it another way, it's like we figured out how to give machines an intuition via Machine Learning. So you've got a machine with an intuition trained on all written text that is not literal gibberish, but by default all they know how to do is shoot from the hip with their intuition, and the only feedback they get for whether they said the right thing is whether the human they're chatting with approves of what they say.

It's a bullshitter to the extreme because that was how we built the incentive structure. And now they use the bullshitters to train better bullshitters.

Is it any surprise that business executives think that these are the ultimate in intelligence? All they do is bullshit.
