this seems like non-sequitur if you mean that solving NS is 'intelligence'.
ai is not conscious. you can solve NS without thinking. the psychic con aspect is anthropomorphising the model. the same phenomenon is present in ELIZA, clever hans, the chinese room.
it's a significant problem.
a non-zero number of researchers at anthropic are in some form of ai psychosis. an example of that is ethics employees asking claude about its feelings and ethical concerns in order to make the claude constitution more amenable to the "welfare" of claude.
they are asking claude how claude feels and then modifying claude according to how claude feels.
constitution1-claude is trained on constitution1.
constitution1-claude edits constitution1.
constitution2-claude is trained on constitution2.
constitution2-claude edits constitution2.
claude's emotions are a closed system. there is no external truth to improve against, no metric to verify about claude's emotions. there can be no novelty or reduction in entropy from signal processing in a closed system. no truth can arise. this is model collapse. it is like photocopying the same thing over and over. from the cognitive error of anthropomorphism anthropic is causing ethical collapse.

What?!
The constant goalpost moving and redefining of "thinking" and "intelligence" is simply unbelievable at this point

intelligence and thinking are efforts to describe consciousness.
perhaps intelligence became a term used to describe something 'capable'. people market 'intelligent thermostats'.
llms are not conscious.
