Highly debated argument though; to me it's like saying you CPU doesn't understand HTML and your browser is running on a CPU, hence it can't understand HTML either. Scott Aaronson explained it nicely too: https://scottaaronson.com/democritus/lec4.html#:~:text=Searl... . Even the wikipedia page mentions many reasonable counter-arguments.
