> and GPT will never be applying critical thought

Just wait. This party has just begun. 90% of humans will be like school kids in comparison to the critical thought of GPT-5.

We are talking about a model that at its core is about making statistics of what the next word will be in a sentence based on an existing corpus. It gives that model the ability to find and summarize all of the existing content in relation to a prompt beyond what humans could do, but I still see no critical thinking there.

This isn't exactly accurate. It's not creating one word at a time, that's the illusion given by the way it illustrates the text on the screen. Doing that would be impossible to create code that compiles for example.
