That’s because they’re not AI.
No, they definitely are AI. ChatGPT for example is a generative pretrained transformer (GPT) is a transformer model is a deep learning model is a machine learning model is AI.
It's just that the general public has no fucking idea what "AI" is due to being swamped in marketing about a field they have zero background in and have been led to believe is some kind of general intellect on the level of a human or smarter. In reality, a perceptron with one weight and one bias is machine learning is AI.
Since the start, what "AI" is has been fairly arbitrary; it's just the ability for a machine to perform tasks we'd associate with human intelligence. It doesn't even need to be machine learning; that's just one branch. The game Video Checkers (1980) for the Atari 2600 running on 128 bytes of RAM has AI that you play against. The bar isn't high at all.
The paper set the LRMs puzzle challenges, such as solving the Tower of Hanoi and River Crossing puzzles.
these are not highly complex problems.

From here on it's going to be just more decades of, "Come on, bro. Just one more shot. My new AI that will be better. I've added another 5,000 Reddit pages. This one will be smart. Trust me, bro. Buy this hardware. I'll throw in some Bitcoin and a couple of NFT. Just one more, bro."
