I think we're talking at cross-purposes here. I'm not underwhelmed by it being not as good as good humans at [task]; that's not a surprise.

I'm saying that most people I see who are impressed by it for any given task are people who are not well-equipped to judge performance on that task.

I'm impressed by the talking dog because it's a dog that can talk, not because I think it's a great orator.

I trust that you're familiar enough with dogs to tell barking apart from talking.
