It’s OK to call it Artificial Intelligence: I wrote about how people really love objecting to the term "AI" to describe LLMs and suchlike because those things aren't actually "intelligent" - but the term AI has been used to describe exactly this kind of research since 1955, and arguing otherwise at this point isn't a helpful contribution to the discussion.
@simon I so want to agree with you. What's making me a ReplyGuy is that people outside the field put far too much weight on what AI means. Too many don't understand how narrow LLMs are, spinning doomsday scenarios far too easily. (but they ARE powerful!) I don't like to use the term just to back these people off the ledge
@scottjenson Yeah, that's exactly why I was resistant to the term too - the "general public" (for want of a better term) knows what AI is, and it's Skynet / The Matrix / Data from Star Trek / Jarvis / Ultron
I decided to give the audience of my writing the benefit of the doubt that they wouldn't be confused by science fiction
