Am I the only one getting agitated by the word AI (Artificial Intelligence)?

Real AI does not exist yet,
atm we only have LLMs (Large Language Models),
which do not think on their own,
but pass turing tests
(fool humans into thinking that they can think).

Imo AI is just a marketing buzzword,
created by rich capitalistic a-holes,
who already invested in LLM stocks,
and now are looking for a profit.

    Title: Unpopular Opinion: The Term “AI” is Just a Marketing Buzzword!

    Hey fellow Redditors, let’s talk about the elephant in the room: AI. 🤖💬

    I can’t be the only one feeling a bit agitated by how the term “Artificial Intelligence” gets thrown around, right? Real AI seems like a distant dream, and what we have right now are these Large Language Models (LLMs). They’re good at passing Turing tests, but let’s be real – they’re not thinking on their own.

    Am I the only one who thinks “AI” is just a fancy label created by those rich, capitalistic individuals already knee-deep in LLM stocks? It feels like a slick way to boost investments and make us believe these machines are more intelligent than they really are. Thoughts? 🔍🧠💭
