shouldn’t it know what words are?

Not necessarily, but it should be smart enough to associate symbols with some form of meaning. It doesn't do that, it juts associates symbols with related symbols, so if there's nothing similar that already exists, it's not going to be able to come back with anything sensible.

I think being able to create new content with partial sample data is necessary to really be considered general AI. That's what humans do, and we don't necessarily need the words to describe it.
