The challenge here is in trying to decide whether LLMs are intelligent or have a mind. Famously, the criteria for intelligence seem to slip with each advancement in technology. But going back to Turing, his test was actually more carefully phrased than we remember: he said that when machines could pass the test, the question of whether they are intelligent would become moot. That seems to be what we're actually seeing: if people can't tell the difference, it kind of won't matter whether they're "truly intelligent" or not.
Sorry, but you are completely missing the point. Psychics and other types of con artists are intelligent and have minds. LLMs behave like Psychics and Con Artists. That's the whole point of this article
It does, and maybe I'm apologizing for the author a little too much by ignoring that needless tangent because I feel like the con artist point, and/or the point about the human tendency to believe what we want to believe are the most important points.
