You hold artificial intelligence to the standards of general artificial intelligence, which doesn't even exist yet. Even dumb decision trees are considered an AI. You have to lower your expectations. Calling the best AIs we have dumb is unhelpful at best.

We never called if statements AI until the last year or so. It's all marketing buzz words. It has to be more than just "it makes a decision" to be AI, or else rivers would be AI because they "make a decision" on which path to take to the ocean based on which dirt is in the way.

Yeah, and highlighting that difference is what is important right now.

This is the first AI to masquerade as general artificial intelligence and people are getting confused.

This current thing doesn't have or need rights or ethics. It can't produce new intellectual property. It's not going to save Timmy when he falls into the well. We're going to need a new Timmy before all this is over
