All of this is accurate (and useful). But yeah, psychics do not prove theorems from frontier math and build working complex software.
In my opinion, this article is talking about people who get into long conversations and become convinced the model is “intelligent”, maybe even “AGI”. This seems to be a trap people are falling into, even in 2026.
It's definitely talking about that, but it's also talking about all of us:- fawning over how amazing these tools are- believing everything OpenAI and Anthropic say about how powerful and dangerous their product is- minimizing the amount of human effort and involvement in every "AI" achievement
