A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

I mean.. Shouldn't we start differentiating generative AI from stuff that's actually useful like computer vision?

My head cannon is that AI = LLMS and machine learning = actually useful "artificial intelligence"

[–] wizardbeard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 2 months ago

That's the way most discussion trends right now. Blame the tech bros and investors chasing a buck for killing the term AI.

Maybe we can start referring to AI devices as Genius Bars.

Absolutely! I hate cool and useful shit like OCR (optical character recognition for anyone who doesn't know) getting mixed with ~~content theft~~ generative AI

That would be nice. If you're talking about generative AI, then call it "generative AI" instead of simply "AI".
