Current LLMs are definitely not intelligent, but predicting the future is a big part (if not the most important part) of intelligence.
Your comment is a bit like saying that humans can't be intelligent, because the biochemistry in our brains is just laws of physics in motion, and the laws of physics are not intelligent.
Intelligent is an emergent property. You can definitely be intelligent even if every component is not.
But with LLMs we found a new weird "dimension" that something can be very knowledgeable without being intelligent. Even current LLMs have more general knowledge than all humans but they lack actual intelligence.
Tried to save and restart? Maybe the battery in the cartridge died?
