    You’re right, but so is the previous poster. Actual AI doesn’t exist yet, and when/if it does it’s going to confuse the hell out of people who don’t get the hype over something we’ve had for years.

    But calling things like machine learning algorithms “AI” definitely isn’t going away… we’ll probably just end up making a new term for it when it actually becomes a thing… “Digital Intelligence” or something. /shrug.

      This problem was kinda solved by adding AGI term meaning “AI but not what is now AI, what we imagined AI to be”

      Not going to say that this helps with confusion much 😅 and to be fair, stuff like autocomplete in office soft was called AI long time ago but it was far from LLMs of now

      Enemies in Doom have AI. We’ve been calling simple algorythms in a handful lines of code AI for a long time, the trend has nothing to do with languege models etc.
