It's Impossible for Machines To Think Like Humans

There's a lot of hysteria around Generative AI (GAI) tools like ChatGPT, beyond the usual hype cycle of many technologies that have come to be in the world. There was even the case last year of the now former Google engineer who was convinced that an AI was, well, sentient. In human terms, this is absolutely impossible. This doesn't mean AI is terrible or that it can't do amazing things to help us. In fact, AI may be just the right technology humanity needs to survive our next phase of evolution. But there is no way, whatsoever, that AI can be in any way, shape or form, human.
