I don't mean to diminish the power and value provided by deep learning, but it doesn't change the fact that pattern recognition is not equivalent to intelligence.

I don't disagree that pattern recognition and intelligence are (probably?) different things.

But if they're functionality equivalent, I'm cool with that.

Heck, it might turn out that humans are already just pattern recognition machines and nothing but. I'm cool with that too.
