    It’s historical. Pathfinders are AI for example. It’s just an acronym for computer doing “brain work”.

    I mean if you’re curious about why we call it that.

      Nevertheless I am calling it LLMs and you all should too. Because whatever computer programmers call it, the public envisions something different that llm’s are not when they hear AI.

        You want to educate the general population?

        Good luck to you.

        (BTW except llms there is also generative AI for the image stuff)

          Ha ha, no not educate per se, craft insults and disarrangements that catch on, craft language that affects the culture. Trying to educate is a fool’s errand outside of enlightened company and even then it’s questionable.
