You put a few GPTs in a trenchcoat and they’re obviously AI. I can’t speak about openAIs offerings since I won’t use it as a cloud service, but local deepseek I’ve tried is certainly AI. People are moving the goalposts constantly, with what seems to me a determination to avoid seeing the future that’s already here. Download deepseek-v2-coder 16b if you have 16GB of ram and 10gb of storage space and see for yourselves, it’s ridiculously low requirements for what it can do, it uses 50% of four cpu cores for like 15 seconds to solve a problem with detailed reasoning steps.
