Superficially, sure. But if you asked someone to regal you with a story they alluded to and they responded with "well, it was a very fine story, indeed" and other superficially valid (but empty/vapid) responses; eventually, you'd realize something is off.

I am afraid some actual people work that way - as the poster suggested. This has significance, because some voices declare that the bare minimum found in humans is a sufficient threshold to AGI. Which, together with the base objection "you cannot call intelligence what is not intelligence", would also call for a "why implementing it then".
