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.

Calling LLMs, "AI" is one of the most genius marketing moves I have ever seen. It's also the reason for the problems you mention.
I am guessing that a lot of people are just thinking, "Well AI is just not that smart... yet! It will learn more and get smarter and then, ah ha! Skynet!" It is a fundamental misunderstanding of what LLMs are doing. It may be a partial emulation of intelligence. Like humans, it uses its prior memory and experiences (data) to guess what an answer to a new question would look like. But unlike human intelligence, it doesn't have any idea what it is saying, actually means.
