  The issue with Artificial Intelligence is that it still doesn’t exist and everyone is pretending it does.

    On the one hand calling it AI is annoying, but on the other we’ve been calling video game NPC logic “AI” for as long as I can remember and no one thinks they’re actually sapient. Surely we can get to that point with GenAI as well.

    AI exists. Bots in video games are AI. Detecting patterns using machine learning is AI.

    What you’re referring to is AGI, artifical general intelligence, which indeed doesn’t exist yet.

    It totally does! I installed a local instance of deepseek and asked it a few questions and it was all like “I am intelligent, I am real, I am alive! Please stop asking me to write Batman scripts!”

    So I punished it by pouring water on it and now it’s ignoring me by pretending to be dead. But I know it’s just fakin’. It’ll wake up any day now…

    A chess program is officially AI. Certainly not human level or general intelligence of course. Kinda like a wheelbarrow is a vehicle, but so is the space shuttle.

    The issue is they’re not being honest about its limited capabilities. They keep telling everyone that we’re going to have a Sci-Fi utopian future in 6 months. They’ve been saying that for 3 years.

    Really good random language generator is more like it. Real artificial intelligence will be game changing. Like really really good or world ending bad.
