You cannot convince something that has no consciousness, it's an matrix of weights that answers based on the given input + some salt

You cannot convince something that has no consciousness

Why not?

It's an matrix of weights that answers based on the given input + some salt

And why can't that be intelligence?

What does it mean to be "convinced"? What does consciousness even mean?

Making definitive claims like these on terms whose definitions we do not understand isn't logical.

It’s an matrix of weights that answers based on the given input + some salt

And why can’t that be intelligence?

Because human intelligence does far more than respond to prompts with the average response from a data set.
