    It has existed since at least the 1960s,probably earlier, and been common use among SciFi nerds since at least the 80s.

    This is not ai. We do not have ai. Nothing currently extant was made with the existence of ai, because ai does not exist at present. If we ever do invent ai, you’re going to look like an excitable wide eyed bigot and it’s going to look cringe as fuck. In the meantime it is used to create buzz and bullshit lies to discipline labor. Contributing to that PR push by using their dishonest language is an active strike against the power of workers, organized and not. It also takes research dollars flops etc from real ai research, which used to be a thing, and would be pretty cool to have around.

    I’ll spare you the explanation of why it’s anti human. Be a tool of the oligarchs or don’t.

      By “that has been in use for over a decade” i meant with the definition that includes all machine learning. I only said over a decade since the first proof of the term being used before openais gpt 3.5 that i can think of is not from 2 decades ago

      There is also another definition that i know of that has existed for much longer than openais gpt 3.5 that includes a script composed of a bunch of if statements. Have you never heard of video game enemy AI?

      It’s so hard to get people to realize, especially the ones adherent to it, LLMs are not AI.

      it’s a roided-up eliza racing to finish a sentence, it’s dashing towards token percentages, and can’t rationalize much less create.

      depressing how common this is.
