They're getting better at recognizing patterns all the time but there's still "nobody at home", doing the thinking.

It's dangerous to think like that. We can't prove that they're not sapient. Now they're not very intelligent but that's not quite the same thing.

At the moment it's probably moot but it's important to realize that we can't actually do any kind of test to determine if actual cognition is happening, so we have to assume that they are capable of intelligent thought because the alternative is dangerously lackadaisical.
