"True intelligence" is a loaded term that needs a concrete definition to discuss meaningfully. Certainly, it is not an intelligence that at all resembles a human intelligence since language models don't actually understand the world, they understand relationships between lexemes and are optimized to produce voluble outputs constructed around that understanding. Language models aren't intelligent in the same way that a motion picture isn't really moving.

Intelligence is simply useless terminology.

It is an ambiguous term that can refer to many different things.

It is used interchangeably with cognitive abilities, personality traits, knowledge, memorization abilities, hard skills, soft skills, etc. in a regular basis.

Just use the specific term instead. Problem solved.

Before people finish their pointless discussion about what intelligence is, billionaires will have taken over the world with the help of these systems.
