AI has its utilities, but capitalists searching for new frontiers and trying to find a genie that can solve climate change, poverty, wealth inequality, and really all of humanity's problems - directly and indirectly caused by capitalism - is not going to happen.

Its not AI. Ai is a marketing term to get investors to throw money at them. Theres nothing intelligent happening here.

I suppose using it as a shorthand is misleading since it lends credibility to its misnomer; do we just stick to calling it LLMs then?

I just call them what they do. Text generator. Image denoiser. Having used every pre-LLM version of accelerated statistical analysis out there (anything meant to find patterns in data), it's always been machine learning outputs. AI was only ever a term I heard in video gaming, which still seems more appropriate.
