Is DALL-E 2 ‘gluing things together’ without understanding their relationships?

I agree there's no high level reasoning (if there's a way to define this).

But saying "It’s simply a high dimensional latent mapping between characters and pixels" is clearly a very bad argument. Your brain is simply a high dimensional latent mapping between your sensory input and your muscular output. This doesn't make you not intelligent.

It definitely does more than that.

What do you mean? Your brain is a high dimensional function. I'm not talking about what it is able to do, I'm talking about what it is.

The brain controls things other than muscles and also doesn't stop in sensory isolation. If it's a high dimensional function, it's not one between sensory input and muscle actuation.

I'm not sure what you mean, what else does it control and what are its other inputs?
