      Yes thank you. I hate these tech bro words. This isn’t “AI” it’s just a tool for corpochuds to skip out on paying for labor.

      I also really hated when zuckerfuck said their shitty VR Chat was called “metaverse”. That word was coined in snowcrash, a quite obvious anti-capitalist book where the “meta” in metaverse meant no single person owned the net.

      Idk, I’m not yet convinced they’re not just hiding their power level and hastening the collapse of the last empire.

      Yes, everything is AI now. It used to be that AI meant a digital consciousness or something like that. Then several years ago they were calling advanced pattern recognition machines AI (IBM Watson). This watered down colloquial definition has now been applied to advanced chatbots and even retroactively to machine translation! Crazy.

      “AI” never really referred to anything specific. The best definition has always been “AI is whatever hasnt been done yet”

      “AI” doesn’t exist yet

      If you’re talking about science fiction sentient AI, that stuff will probably never exist.
