Which describes many click bait sites also. So are they intelligent?

Almost as "intelligent" as a LLM-based chat bot!

The key word in the name is "Artificial". Anyone with half a brain knows that these machines have nothing anywhere close to intelligence.

Can you pass the bar exam?

Myself I haven't tried.
But in quite a few place in the US one does not need to be a lawyer to be a judge.
One does not need to go to law school to take the bar exam.
There are practicing lawyers that have not passed the bar exam.
A lawyer was sanctioned because they submitted case law extracted from ChatGPT which was entirely made up.
Myself I can drive a car in the snow and maneuver around construction cones without running into the side of truck. Hopefully you can do the same. Hopefully you do not rely on your self driving car to do that.

Can lawyers write specifications? designs? computer programs?

Why would they? They get fed the internet: GIGO applies!

AI is just a learning algorithm. It predicts behavior based on previously known inputs and learns to predict the correct output based on these. The problem is that it needs a massive amount of data to be able to do this.
What I would love to see is an AI that could read the documentation and be able to just answer your questions from this documentation. Or better, you just type what you want to do in a console in the respective program, and the AI finds out what you want it to do and does it.

I was thinking more generally. If you have say a GIS program you could just type: I want to create a plot of the current view, and it just does it.
The AI you suggested seems to be a coder and code reviewer?

My link was for the coder.
I do not use it - but you can sign up for the technical preview.
They also announce an AI for docs
GitHub Next | Copilot for Docs[^]
But you can only join the waitlist (whatever this means).
|
|
|
|

Maybe I can ask the AI for docs on what it means. Oh snap 
I would also love to just give an AI a plot and ask it to make a game of it in the style of Witcher 3

Err...not sure I see much difference between what you are stating and basically every click bait site. Plus quite a few other sites. Not to mention posts by many individuals.

There's is no "one" AI. Each one is custom-tailored, by a "creator", to pursue their agenda; probably at your expense. At a minimum, it captures "you" while you're busy conversing with "it" (i.e. the "creator's" data banks).
"Before entering on an understanding, I have meditated for a long time, and have foreseen what might happen. It is not genius which reveals to me suddenly, secretly, what I have to say or to do in a circumstance unexpected by other people; it is reflection, it is meditation." - Napoleon I

Takes me back to the "good 'ol days" as a student when we "copied" answers from a book, only to realize the answer is not working for our app needs... The AI back then were called "... 101 for dummies".

That is totally incorrect -- "AI" have no concept of anything.
There is no "intelligence" in "artificial intelligence". In simplest terms, any "AI" is just a huge, nested if-then-else.
When programming, it's up to the programmer to ensure that an if-then-else is testing the correct things, and is testing them correctly. If there is any point of failure, the results will be wrong at least some of the time.
Machine learning works by feeding it massive amounts of data, and later indicating which is correct and which is not. As has been pointed out, it gets better with training.
The problem is that it will never be 100% correct, yet people are already trusting these systems as being so. There is no discrimination, just a lot of tests that must be correct, yet can't be.

This is the point right here. They can't be trusted. Specifically, they can't be trusted to "discern" (if/else or otherwise come to a conclusion about) the difference between fact sources (historical documents, scientific studies, current events) and fictional ones.
