I've hand calculated forward propagation (neural networks). AI does not learn, its statically optimized. AI "learning" is curve fitting. Human learning requires understanding, which AI is not capable of.

Human learning requires understanding, which AI is not capable of.

How could anyone know this?

Is there some test of understanding that humans can pass and AIs can't? And if there are humans who can't pass it, do we consider then unintelligent?

We don't even need to set the bar that high. Is there some definition of "understanding" that humans meet and AIs don't?
