Someone with a PHD isn't inherently more intelligent than other humans. They are able to put in the time and effort to become a subject matter expert in a field.
I get that it's all buzz, but they simply don't understand human intelligence, how can they even dream to replicate it. AGI is a myth.
My wife is currently writing her dissertation. So no shade to PHDs.
AGI isn't a myth, it's just never going to happen with an LLM as its core.
My brother, who has a Ph.D. in pure mathematics, says that all a doctorate means is that you've learned to talk a lot.
I don't and never will have one, so this is the only relevant information I have.
Slight correction based on my experience and because even without a PhD, people regularly put in the time to become subject matter experts:
No shade to PhDs, I feel your pain.
