It can appear so, as long as you don’t check too carefully. It’s impressive but still very common to find basic errors once you are out of the simplest, most common problems due to the lack of real understanding or reasoning capabilities. That leads to mistakes which most humans wouldn’t make (while sober / non-sleep deprived) and the classes of error are different because humans don’t mix that lack of understanding/reasoning/memory with the same level of polish.



Ask ChatGPT about something you don't know about and it can appear very smart. Ask it in depth about something you are very knowledgeable about and the ignorance will quickly become apparent.
