People who don't understand or use AI think it's less capable than it is and claim it's not AGI (which no one else was saying anyways) and try to make it seem like it's less valuable because it's "just using datasets to extrapolate, it doesn't actually think."

Guess what you're doing right now when you "think" about something? That's right, you're calling up the thousands of experiences that make up your "training data" and using it to extrapolate on what actions you should take based on said data.

You know how to parallel park because you've assimilated road laws, your muscle memory, and the knowledge of your cars wheelbase into a single action. AI just doesn't have sapience and therefore cannot act without input, but the process it does things with is functionally similar to how we make decisions, the difference is the training data gets input within seconds as opposed to being built over a lifetime.
