It means AI can recite information from a domain that PhD-level people are concerned with. This doesn't mean it can draw correct conclusions, rephrase emails properly or do any heavy-lifting like come up with computer code beyond boilerplate templates and tech-demos. It's mainly just hype. AI is useful. But not very bright as of today.
The funny thing in my field is that real life PhD's tend to be worse than Masters-level staff because they've gone so far into theory that they have problems with practical application.
It’s almost like AI is purely marketing and also has problems with practical application.
