You're confusing AI and AGI: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_effect
AGI is what people mean, when they say "AI doesn't exist": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_general_intelligence
While AI is a program that can do a task associated with human intelligence: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_intelligence
AI is not supposed to be an artificial human being. AI just does a task that people associated with humans (before they readjusted the definition of intelligence after it being created).
A bot that plays chess is an AI.
While this can be a valuable clarification, it ignores the plain use history of the term AI, and demands that language change for our convenience.
Laypeople have always used "AI" to mean what scientists call "AGI".
Language is weird, and tech bros suck.
If hollywood can waltz in and force us to stop using the name of a discipline, I think we may need to scrap this sim and start from scratch.
It used to be that AI was AI and then when AI was coopted by the stupid they had to come up qith AGI
No, it just wasn't mainstream to talk about because the average person didn't encounter AI
People playing video games have been differentiating between AI and AGI for over 50 years, though, considering enemies in video games are all AI
Ya know, I can remember AI being used even in hella old games for enemies.
Which had even less to do with AI than LLM.
Q1 Reaper is still smarter than modern LLMs
I have several books for the 90s about AI programming. AI have always mean any computer program written to "resemble" intelligence, from basic path finding to LLM.
Just like the Hoverboard.
And the damn movie was already made too! Bastards!
