Ok but what does that mean. What makes for having an agenda that isn't already encapsulated within "the things that are n steps ahead in your speech planning?". If intelligence works in a way that is fundamentally different from GPT-3, what specific thing can't be accomplished by simply increasing the steps planned ahead in the next GPT?

Suppose we do more of the same to build GPT-4, and now it can stay focused for whole paragraphs at a time. Is it intelligent yet? How about when GPT-5 starts writing whole books. If the approach of GPT starts generating text that stays on topic long enough to pass the Turing test, is it time to accept that there is nothing deeper to human intelligence than a hidden Markov model? What if we're all deluded about how intricate and special human intelligence really is?
