From a practical standpoint, all the talk of "true understanding", "sentience" and the likes is pointless.
The only real and measurable thing is performance. And the performance of AI systems only goes up.
But only goes up in the sense that it's getting closer to a horizontal asymptote. Which is not really that good.
It does, but the limit isn't "human performance". AI isn't bounded by human performance. The limit is the saturation of the benchmark in question.
Which is solvable with better benchmarks.
