    Nah the guy on the right understands that AI means almost anything. Hell, even the A* pathfinding algorithm falls under the realm of AI.

      Fucking thank you! I swear way too many people think that if it ain’t Data from Star Trek, then it’s not real AI.

        Its like these people don’t understand language changes overtime, it doesn’t matter what ai used to mean it matters what it means now

                Scientific consensus. But it’s not “LLMs”. AI covers multitudes of methods, algorithms, models. LLMs fall into sequence modeling / prediction, usually based on transformers nowadays, which is a method from machine learning, which itself is a big branch inside of the term “AI”.

                Society collectively when, whenever a person or company talks about AI, they’re talking about chatgpt, Gemini, deepseek, ollama, or whatever other LLM you want to substitute it for

                  There’s a shit ton of modern AIs that are actively talked about and aren’t LLMs. What about AlphaFold? Or StableDiffusion, or the reinforcement learning running Boston Dynamic’s robots, or like, every computer vision classification task ever, or the software behind Waymo, or GANs like they use in Snapchat filters? Heck, people still consider Deep Blue an AI even though it’s completely obsolete today.

                  People still call this stuff AI (because it is) even though most of them have nothing to do with LLMs.

                    I don’t disqualify any of these things from being ai, my point is that if someone hears the word ai without any other context, they’re probably going to think of an llm
