A parrot can’t play 20 questions, emulate theory of mind, or implement merge sort with pirate themed variable names.


> A parrot can’t play 20 questions,

Not, but a tree can.

> emulate theory of mind,

Neither can Chat GPT. "Failing a Theory of Mind at the same level a 7 year old does" is no more Theory of Mind than being really good at chess is.

True.


A tree can only play 20 questions if it’s asking the questions. ChatGPT can go the other way.
