The meaning of AI has changed drastically within the past 10 years or so.
Back then ‘AI’ was a term reserved for Artificially Intelligent beings like Skynet, HAL, the machines from The Matrix, etc.
Today AI has been watered down to the point that we need to specify what kind of AI we’re referring to.
I’m not sure there’s a way to stop that unless you unleash a swarm of very convincing social media accounts across the internet all run by LLMs with the goal of correcting our current course… that or put them to work writing news articles like this one.
