Artificial intelligence (AI) is intelligence demonstrated by machines, unlike the natural intelligence displayed by humans and animals, which involves consciousness and emotionality. The distinction between the former and the latter categories is often revealed by the acronym chosen.

If Ais were capable of invention and creation, I might agree. But they aren't. They regurgitate what they are modeled on.
We don't teach AIs, they don't learn, there's no university, there's no fundamentals. We just have models that reproject. They take the training data, mix it all up, and then project it out again.
There is use to that, but gpt isn't a child. It can not learn, comprehend, or understand. It's a tool, and as a tool, it depends heavily on the work created by others.
You overestimate humans with your argument.
You couldn't even make your comment right now if a teacher hadn't taught you english, you couldn't have typed it if engineers hadn't created computers and keyboards, you couldn't have posted it without network technicians who setup and run the internet...
The modern world is literally the combined work of billions of humans.
If you were left alone as a baby, you'd be dead.
No, humans learn, ais regurgitate. There is a distinct difference.
You cant really compare like that, learning is an input and regurgitating is an output.
Humans learn and regurgitate much the same as an AI learns and regurgitates.
A human can only output things based on input it's received in the past. Try imagining a new color. Any color you could possibly come up with is just some combination of colors that already exist. By painting with purple are you not "regurgitating" the work of red and blue?
