All AI is actual AI. It doesn’t need to be real intelligence to be artificial, should be obvious. Are you telling me artificial grass shouldn’t be called that because a goat can’t eat it?
Except it is a fairly good artifice of grass. “AI” is not a good artifice of intelligence. GAI would be, but not LLMs or anything else we have today. They aren’t trying to mimic intelligence. They’re trying to mimic the output of intelligence. They don’t think; they reproduce.
Good for what? Looking at? It’s not gonna satisfy a goat.
We only care for the look (“the output”), and we don’t expect more of it, or sell it for more than it is. That’s why it’s not a controversial term for astroturf. It wasn’t controversial for AI either until very recently. In 60 years of AI nobody has split hairs over output of intelligence. It’s justified but weirdly misdirected anger.

No, he’s questioning the intelligence part and not if it’s artificial or not.
Do you question the grass part of artificial grass? It’s obviously not grass.

AI is a perfectly cromulent word for the thing.
