@serapath @simon Yeah, it’s polysemic. It means x to researchers, but y to laypeople who only know of ChatGPT. I honestly haven’t seen/heard anyone IRL immediately jumping into a conversation with “but it’s not actually intelligent!!”. What I have experienced is getting partway into a conversation and having to say it - because it has become obvious the other person DOES think “Intelligence” is human-like decision making.

@jimgar @serapath that observation that the term AI is polysemic just expanded my understanding of the core issue here substantially! Thanks for that
