It's a really bad term because it's usually associated with a mind, and LLMs are nothing of the sort.
Anthropomorphication is hard to avoid in AI.
Many worthy things are difficult.
But is anthropomorphism of AI particularly worrying?
It is when the people tends to give more credence to entities that appear sentient and to have agency.
So is bullshitting. More so, only human minds can bullshit.
We anthropomorphize machines all the time, it's fine.
I'd prefer we'd start calling all genai output hallucinations again. It used to be like 10 years ago, but somewhere along the line marketing decided hallucinated truths aren't "hallucinations".
It's fucking not, amd I'm not changing my mind about it.
And a bull's anus.
