The author argues that demonstrations of models "cloning existing games" (like a Sims clone) do not genuinely reflect a model's intelligence or capabilities, as they merely showcase the ability to copy and paste pre-existing content. True, future-beneficial intelligence should be able to observe the pros and cons of current things to create new value, rather than simply replicating what we already have.
