ChatGPT: I can perform certain types of reasoning and exhibit intelligent behavior to some extent, but it’s important to clarify the limitations of my capabilities. […] In summary, while I can perform certain forms of reasoning and exhibit intelligent behavior within the constraints of my training data, I do not possess general intelligence or the ability to think independently and creatively. My responses are based on patterns in the data I was trained on, and I cannot provide novel insights or adapt to new, unanticipated situations.
That said, this is one area where I wouldn’t trust the ChatGPT one bit. It has no introspection (outside of the prompt), due to not having any long term memory. So everything it says is based on whatever marketing material OpenAI trained it with.
Either way, any reasonable conversation with the bot will show that it can reason and is intelligent. The fact that it gets stuff wrong sometimes is absolutely irrelevant, since every human does that too.
I would encourage you to ask ChatGPT itself if it is intelligent or performs reasoning.
