    True AI doesn’t exist yet, worth keeping in mind. LLMs are basically just going for test rides now.

    In terms of corporations, most people i know are being told by their bosses not to use it because companies are scared that their data will be stolen

      AI has existed for decades. Email spam filters and autocorrect for example are AI systems. What you’re probably thinking is AGI which indeed doesn’t exist but it’s not a synonym for AI.

      True AI does exist, many things are AI. What you may be thinking of is AGI, (artificial general intelligence), which doesn’t yet exist.

          It uses neural networks which are some of the best established AIs in existence and have been for decades.

          What definition of AI are you using? Because it’s wrong hehe

          Well, machine learning is considered a subfield of artificial intelligence.

          You definitely mean “Artificial General Intelligence”

            Really? Because AI has been around in sci fi for a long time. Generative AI is what tried to redefine the definition

              AI has been a sub field of computer science for decades and has never meant the same thing as in sci fi.

              The AI you’re thinking of in sci fi might be AGI. AI has long meant a field of computer science where you get computers to do tasks that require human intelligence, such a a recognising images, playing chess, generating text of images, etc.
