I'm often reminded of a bit on Top Gear years ago, when they were talking about "turbo" as a marketing tool in the 80s, when you could buy "turbo" sunglasses or "turbo" watches or "turbo" after-shave.
These days it's Pro. The word lost all meaning entirely. In the vast majority of products that are sold with this tag, it's just a slightly better version of an enshittified product
And it's usually the people with room temperature IQs (and I'm talking Celsius) calling everything AI. You know, the type who can't recognize actual AI pictures and probably also thinks the Moon landings were faked
Wait, are you trying to tell me the moon landing was real? It was clearly filmed in Siberia why else would the ground look so white, it's the Siberian snow obviously.
Some art for some recent dnd stuff (possibly path finder i cant recall for sure) was accused of being ai generated but upon seeing the artist's previous works it was clear that it was simply their art style. Really unfortunate bc they got a lot of hate
Like when you open that AI that you can tell numbers from your restaurant tab and it will tell you exactly the total you own (much more precise than an LLM). Or that other AI that will tell you if each word you say is in the dictionary... Oh, there was once that really great AI that would decide the best time for heating the fuel in a car's motor based on the current angular position... too bad people decided to replace this one.
Yeah kinda tired of it. We don't even have AI yet, and here people are throwing around the term right and left and then accusing everything under the sun to be generated by it.
AI is broader term then you think, it goes back to the beginnings of modern computing with Alan Turing. You seem to be thinking about the movie definition of AI, not the academic.
I am fully aware of Alan Turnings work and it is rather exceptional when you read that formulas were be8ng created for diffusion models in the late 40's.
But i really don't care thar whoever wrote that wikipedia page believes the hype. We are still in statistical algorithm stages. Even on the wiki page it says thar AI is aware of its surroundings as a feature of AI. We do not have that.
Also, it appears that most people are still not fooled by "ai" as we have it today, meaning it does not pass even the most basic Turing test. Which a lot of academic believe is not even enough as a marker of ai ad that too wad from the 50's
This movie is like a fever dream. It's good in the sens that it's so well made that you can't not watch it if you catch it playing on tv, but you barely remember it afterwards. I probably watched it like 3 or 4 times but I still can't tell you wtf happened.
I'm curious now. Which band is this? (Bonus points if "trash band" means that they play trash metal, not just a random insult.) EDIT: disregard that, I conflated both words.
