11. No, AI bots are not actually intelligent

Unlike sci-fi robots, they have no ability to reason; they simply emulate human conversation by pattern matching in the training material. They cannot independently evaluate the soundness of facts or the validity of inferences, even at a primitive level, hence they cannot really "do" logic. Any apparent logic in what they say is really just a reflection of the logic in the training material, but they might also reflect bad logic, since they have no ability to recognize the difference.

I think this incident is most likely a prank, possibly by someone at Google.
