I like to think of GPT-4 as having 'non-human recognizable intelligence.' Scientists have recently discovered that trees have intelligence; telling each other to get ready for approaching drought or infestations for example. Non-human recognizable intelligence is the premise of the planetary intelligence in Stanislaw Lem's SciFi book Solaris. I think this intelligence will emerge as we progress up the release number count (GPT-#). And it is very likely that we will not be able to fix, or have the unifying will to fix, what we discover if current trends remain unmitigated. I keep thinking of the old communist quote; "The Capitalists Will Sell Us the Rope with Which We Will Hang Them."
