The people saying AI machines "can't think" are people who, themselves, rarely engage actual thinking skills.
It is always assumed that all humans think perfectly, naturally and effortlessly, and that machines aren't "thinking machines" until they can match human thinking capabilities.
Yet shockingly few humans can think at all. Most of them are just bio-LLMs who regurgitate whatever garbage they ingested through their eyes or ears. They hardly have an original thought cross their minds.
Shockingly few humans have a conceptual internal reality that maps anywhere close to the reality outside their heads. They live inside delusional constructs, distorting sensory input to match their internal maps rather than updating their maps to match the terrain in the world around them.
As a result, most humans aren't THINKING at all. They are PROJECTING.
"Projectioning" (not a typo) isn't reasoning. It's bio-LLM behavior. And that's about 99% of what you see on every social media platform. "Projectioning" is the act of slopping your internal broken map onto the content canvas of the world, without engaging any real thinking skills at all.
This is why it's excruciating for high-IQ people like you and I to interact with dumbed-down masses, because their signal-to-noise ratio is zero.
