motherfucker, *that’s how language works*
most people fucking hate AI, and only people selling shit care to split hairs over a marketing term that was invented by eugenicists to grift for grant money

@zzt@mas.to @jonesmurphy@mastodon.social @ApostateEnglishman@mastodon.world @dnkboston@apobangpo.space @netbsd@mastodon.sdf.org hey, I am not selling anything myself and I detest the LLM "AI" business precisely because it's abusing the term. I studied AI stuff in school and intend to do so again; it's a valid discipline. The "generative AI" people have coopted the term knowing full well that opponents of their scam would be baited into attacking artificial intelligence generally. Why make it easier for them?
