No, there's no point. A lot of people already believe that AI is intelligent and they won't accept any arguments to the contrary regardless of how they are framed. There is no objective definition of intelligence, we don't know exactly how LLMs operate, nor do we know exactly how the human brain operates, but people will state with absolute certainty that LLMs operate in exactly the same way as the human brain and are, therefore, human equivalent if not human superior.

It's a religious argument, a matter of faith. You can't argue logic with faith. They'll just call you a fool and a Luddite, waste your time demanding strict definitions they themselves are never required to make and simplistic false equivalences between humans and AI ("but humans also x") because they believe you're a simpleton for not grasping what they consider self-evident and obvious, that all of your objections come from a place of fear and primitive superstition.

You're just wasting your time.

lol i kinda agree, this is generation 1 of AI, they just scaled and market it as intelligent, although that's helpful to complete repetitive tasks like coding but to do something entirely new, AI just plays with sophisticated language there.

some say its a new species XD

It's all the worst aspects of the crypto-bros/NFT set combined with all the worse aspects of flat-earthers and creationists to make the most insufferable bullshit sandwich ever.
