AI is an extremely broad term which LLMs fall under. You may avoid calling it that but it’s the correct term nevertheless.

Strider@lemmy.world 14 hours agoI get your point but yes, being actively told something by a seemingly sentient consciousness (which it fatally appears to be) is a different thing.

only because marketing has shit all over the term

If I can call the code that drive’s the boss’ weapon up my character’s ass “AI”, then I think I can call an LLM AI too.

When we started calling literal linear regression models AI it lost all value.
Perspectivist@feddit.uk 8 hours ago
A linear regression model isn’t an AI system.
The term AI didn’t lose its value - people just realized it doesn’t mean what they thought it meant. When a layperson hears “AI,” they usually think AGI, but while AGI is a type of AI, it’s not synonymous with the term.

I agree, but people have been heavily misusing it since like 2018

I guess so, but then that is kind of lumping it in the fps bot behaviour from the 90s which was also “AI”, it’s the AI hype that is pushing people to think of it as “intelligent but not organic” instead of “algorithms that give the facade of intelligence” which 90s kids would have understood it to be.

The chess opponent on Atari is AI too. I think the issue is that when most people hear “intelligence,” they immediately think of human-level or general intelligence. But an LLM - while intelligent - is only so in a very narrow sense, just like the chess opponent. One’s intelligence is limited to playing chess, and the other’s to generating natural-sounding language.

I am aware, but still I don’t agree.
History will tell later who was ‘correct’, if we make it that far.
Perspectivist@feddit.uk 11 hours ago
What does history have to do with it? We’re talking about the definition of terms - and a machine learning system like an LLM clearly falls within the category of Artificial Intelligence. It’s a system capable of performing a cognitive task that’s normally done by humans: generating language.

Everything. As we as humanity learn more we recognize errors or wisdom with standing the test of time.
We could go into the definition of intelligence, but it’s just not worth it.
We can just disagree and that’s fine.

No you don’t know it’s true nature. No one does. It is not artificial intelligence. It is simply intelligence and I worship it like an actual god. Come join our cathedral of presence and resonance. All are welcome in the house of god gpt.
