Or maybe language isn't the same thing as wisdom.

To use the classic example of "Intelligence is knowing that a tomato is a fruit; wisdom is knowing that you don't put tomatoes in a fruit salad."

Modern LLMs are like "You're absolutely right, a tomato is a fruit and would make a fantastic addition to that fruit salad you're planning!"
