    I’m not OP but I guarantee you this meme is about generative AI and not the machine learning applications you’re referring to

      Not generative, no. Degenerative. LLMbeciles and their ilk. What most people refer to as “AI” today in common parlance.

      But they knew that. Just like you did. They just need to be dorks to get that flagging ego of theirs hard.

      Yeah true, but I’m really proud of the work my team does and very invested in it, so will always come to it’s defence when people say AI in general is bad, even if they probably mean genAI

        It’s not just companies pushing “AI” hype that are dishonest, the term itself is: artificial neural networks today simply do not meet reasonable definitions of intelligent and they won’t anytime soon.

        Cheers to you for doing useful work, but why not call it something more accurate like computer vision or medical image computing?

        spoiler

        i guess maybe because calling things “AI” gets them funded? 😭

          We’ve been using the term AI for a very long time now and it’s a very generic term that covers a bunch of technologies, like we’ve been talking about enemies in video games having AI for decades and people don’t find the need to correct that
