@jonesmurphy@mastodon.social @dnkboston@apobangpo.space @netbsd@mastodon.sdf.org @zzt@mas.to Personally, when I critique "AI" I'm talking narrowly and specifically about large language models (LLMs), and other "generative" systems that only work by hoovering up the whole of human knowledge and creativity, and regurgitating it back at us. They can't output anything that a human hasn't already contributed to the corpus - hence the "model collapse" problem. They can't reason nor solve any new problems. Machine learning (ML) is a broader topic.
