    In science fiction I’ve often seen the term VI (Virtual Intelligence) to refer to machines that look intelligent, and could probably pass a Turing test, but aren’t really intelligent (normally VI coexists with actual AI, often used as interfaces, where it would be a waste, or too risky, to use a proper AI).

    LLMs look a bit like that, though they’re probably too unreliable to use as an interface for anything important.
