There's a distinction between Intelligence and Consciousness and honestly I do think LLMs are 'Intelligent' enough based off the process they use. They get things wrong, but you wouldn't call humans 'unintelligent' for getting things wrong either. That doesn't mean it's anywhere close to being an AGI either, just that I think the bar for 'intelligence' isn't that high and I think at least more advanced models are approaching or are at intelligence.
