    LLMs are AI as much as the enemies in a game are AI. It’s not General AI though, which companies really seem to want people to believe it is.

      It was kind of OK to refer to enemies as AI back then because not a single human (or investor) truly believed that a bot in CS can write text, paint an image, or replace you at your job. Now misusing the term leads to an unnecessary dangerous confusion.

          No, no they weren’t, not even close. Unless you’re using AI in the loosest way possible, including machine learning algorithms that we were calling AI as a joke in the 90s.
