We (some of us at least) have been calling simple logic in computer games AI. And an artificial plant means some plastic shaped like a plant, it can't do photosynthesis, it can't grow, it can't reproduce. Meanwhile current AIs can code, explain a joke, etc.

they can't "code", they can't "explain a joke", they can output cached human data in such a way that it seems like they're generating these things themselves.

what do you mean by this exactly? like whats an experiment which establishes the difference? a lot of human behavior is also only liminally generative cached retrieval
