Hey, real quick, what has the thing controlling the enemies in video games been called for 50 years and would you equally call that delusional, or are you just specifically butthurt at LLMs?
Relax. Language isn't going to change overnight.
"AI" can have different meanings to different people in different contexts. That's how words work.
The important things we can agree on is that AI scientists are doing interesting and dangerous work, and tech bro snake oil salesmen suck.
I always called them bots when doing bot matches in GRAW, Unreal Tournament, etc. All my friends did, too. Actually not sure I've ever heard PvE nor bots called "AI," if that's what you meant. Maybe now but I don't game anymore so I wouldn't know.
What controls the bots? The term used by the people making the games, the thing that controls what the bots do?
Literally always has been called AI, because that's exactly what it is: faked smarts
Code.
Which is called....? I get what you're trying to do but it makes you look dumb
C++
Alright, so you're willingly an idiot, gotcha
