I tend to think of it in reverse: not that LLMs are intelligent, but that humans are more empty than we…think we are.

I think that reveals your cynicism more than it provides any useful insight about intelligence.

No, it reveals that he is older than you. Not every insight needs to be useful.

If it helps I intended “empty” in a positive Zen sort of way, not as in an abyss. The humanness is in the listener, not the inner talker.
