I agree, real intelligence may also potentially be explained as all "math and probability", whether it's neurons or atoms. A key difference between our brains and LLMs is that the underlying math behind LLMs is still substantially more comprehensible to us, for now.

It's common to believe that we have a more mystical quality, a consciousness, due to a soul, or just being vastly more complex, but few can draw a line clearly.

That said, this article certainly gives a more accurate understanding of LLMs compared to thinking of them as if they had human-like intelligence, but I think it goes too far in insinuating that they'll always be limited due to being "just math".

On a side note, this article seems pretty obviously the product of AI generation, even if human edited, and I think it has lots of fluff, contrary to the name.
