      AI is a ridiculous broad term these days. Everybody had been slapping the label on anything. It’s kinda like saying “transportation” and it means anything between babies crawling up to wrap drive and teleportation.

      Technically speaking how I differentiate it is:

      • clever algorithm is a good heuristic
      • statistics on steroids is machine learning
      • using a transformer model is AI (for now)
