True to a point, but the math behind chat bots and text analysis is pretty open. You can take courses and see how they work.

It's like if a chat bot was trained on a lot of text from a crazy Nazi online chatroom, it would say some very weird things, compared to if it was trained on text from textbooks.

It's really impressive, but I think it's different fundamentally from real conscious AI.

Like I heard someone asked ChatGPT about opening a hot dog stand on the top of Mount Everest.

A person knows that's crazy, but a cpu is just connecting nouns (hot dog stand, Mount Everest) and verbs (opening a) and making responses.
