Can a machine think? What distinguishes human intelligence from artificial intelligence (AI)?

Topic 1: Can a machine think? What distinguishes human intelligence from artificial intelligence (AI)? “The question of knowing whether a computer can think is not more interesting than that of knowing whether a submarine can swim, ” replied Edsger W. Dijkstra, one of the pioneers of computer science, to those worrying about “intelligent machines.” Indeed, rather than thinking in terms of an opposition between human intelligence and artificial intelligence, it seems more fruitful to ask what AI can teach us about our own intelligence, our own mental faculties ; in what sense the first imitates the second. Wherein lies the source of human originality over and against the machine? Since machines are henceforth capable of calculating, evaluating, situating themselves in an environment, recognizing and even learning, what remains special about human intelligence? One could for instance approach this topic by way of thinking about intuition, improvisation, creativity, or even more philosophical notions such as abstraction or the knowledge of universals.
