A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

ai is just too nifty word even if its gross misuse of the term. large language model doesnt roll of the tongue as easily.
The goalpost has shifted a lot in the past few years, but in the broader and even narrower definition, current language models are precisely what was meant by AI and generally fall into that category of computer program. They aren't broad / general AI, but definitely narrow / weak AI systems.
I get that it's trendy to shit on LLMs, often for good reason, but that should not mean we just redefine terms because some system doesn't fit our idealized under-informed definition of a technical term.
well, i guess i can stop feeling like i'm using wrong word for them then
