It isn't actually smart, or thinking. It's just statistics.
I'm not sure why that's a relevant distinction to make here. A statistical model is just as capable of designing (for instance) an atom bomb as a human mind is. If anything, I would much rather the machines destined to supplant me actually could think and have internal worlds of their own, that is far less depressing.
No. A statistical model is designed by a human mind. It doesn't design anything on its own.
