Usage by scientists to do pattern matching and by language models to replicate natural sounding language and a bunch of other AI is neat and useful but the AI is not literally intelligent as described by the people that are dumping LLMs into settings they are not actually useful for like regurgitating accurate facts.
When we criticize AI in situations like this it is because they are using a tape ruler to hammer in a nail and then taking away people’s hammers and replacing them with tape measures and then we find out they stole all the tape measures.
We are complaining about a combination of what it is and how it is used. We also want to make sure that a term that means something stupid is clearly used for that stupid thing and doesn’t lose meaning because they have some vaguely related usage. Using a hammer put pound in a nail and using the hammers claw to pull a nail out are two different things even if they both use a nail.
Where as you seem to think anyone criticizing shitty use of AI means all AI that exists instead of understanding context.
