Search is not intelligence, but synthesis is, and LLMs interpolate well. They don't invent new branches of mathematics and science yet.

You really think the reason we revere Nobel Prize winners is because they are good at interpolating?

		I did not say that, but you said > If we assembled the sum total of all published human knowledge on a storage medium and gave a computer the ability to search it extremely well in order to answer any question falling within its domain, there, you would have a Nobel Prize beating "A.I". Which is not what LLMs do (synthesis is the core feature, not retrieval), and not how you get a Nobel Prize; many people have access to essentially all human knowledge, but have no Nobel Prize.
