This is one of the best descriptions of AI that I have read so far:
"It isn’t a technology, it’s a branding term, and it’s a branding term used almost exclusively for things that have no social benefit."

AI is a conceipt from philosophy, computer science & science fiction. Every decade or so, the latest advances (expert systems, machine learning, etc) are trotted out in one form or another & called AI for no reason other than marketing.

"This isn't technology..."
Sometimes smart folks say dumb shit.
Sometimes, really smart folks say really dumb shit.Of course #Ai is technology, saying it ain't as a core of your argument, is super lazy polemic.
There are plenty of dogs to hang on #broligarch Ai, but saying "It ain't tech" is puppetry for all the forest folk.

@n_dimension @david_chisnall @courtcan read the rest of what OP said: "in the current climate, it’s generally safe to interpret ‘AI’ as meaning ‘machine learning applied to a problem where machine learning is the wrong solution’." That's the key sentence

Imagine the arrogance of thinking you know what is the "right" solution before you know what all the use cases instances of problems are.
That's next level hubris
Dogma is an ugly mindset.

@courtcan @david_chisnall I have @emilymbender and @Katecrawford 's respective books on my table right now. Fellow #FreeBSD and IP networking operative George Neville-Neil quoted in "Atlas of AI" on limitations. Emily Bender and Alex Hanna in The AI Con: "AI is a marketing term ... It doesn’t refer to a coherent set of technologies.” #GrandTheftautocomplete For the record I have no problem with LLMs. I do have a problem with rampant theft and pointless avarice. Has Gary Marcus gone soft today?

I can't remember why I didn't block you ages ago, but you do seem to show up and insult people all over the place. I will fix that now.

@courtcan @david_chisnall Well, like I put on my reply to this. AI isn't a "product". It's a concept. It's the full package of a SYSTEM (that is an important word here) of intelligence functioning like a human. Language models are only one sub-system to that larger concept. And language is absolutely ridiculously simple. The brain's language processing regions, Broca's and Wernicke's areas respectively are actually very small. So that tells us language is very easy and there are bigger parts

@courtcan @david_chisnall every LLM i've interacted with has eventually admitted as much.
