They're using the current common terminology for the phenomenon, which does not have the roots you claimed it has.

I can promise you that "the ADL and Israel and the Zionist institutions" are not the only ones using the term "antisemitism". I'd personally prefer that it'd be called anti Jewish racism.

Regardless of whether a group of politicians use it maliciously or not - Antisemitism exists and happens all the time. It has not "lost its value", and if it has then so has western society.

The word has never, in its history, been used for anything other than racism against Jews. There are Semitic languages, not people. > Due to the root word Semite, the term is prone to being invoked as a misnomer by those who incorrectly

In your opinion do people mean the same thing when discussing enemy AI in a game engine and LLMs / AGI?

It's not measurable externally perhaps if the mechanism sufficiently mimics intelligence, but I'd argue that to do that the mechanism actually needs to answer at least some of the criteria above. It's also not necessarily som

I don't understand the question, the comment above asked for a possible definition of an artificial intelligence. An artificial intelligence is an intelligence. I'd assumed "and not natural / created" was a given Ed

My point is that when people say AGI they don't mean a super sophisticated version of a game engine's enemy behavioral mechanics. Sci-fi is many times a speculative guess about the possible future of technology, IMO its not comple

I've touched on that in this and another comment, but my main point is that intelligence involves actual understanding rather than association or statistical analysis between input and output. Anything that we define as truly intellige

That's not the usage I'm familiar with, e.g. sci-fi novels will frequently use AI for actually intelligent and possibly sentient beings that just aren't biological (see Skippy in Expeditionary Force), the intelligence isn&#x2

While I agree with the sentiment (this was the case for machine learning before as well), calling it autocomplete is probably an overcorrection since its usefulness as a tool extends beyond that (e.g. summarizing). LLM bubble?

I've touched on this in the sibling comment but this does raise the question of what's the difference between an artificial intelligence and an artificial sentience / consciousness. There's some overlap in our current pe

I'd argue that LLMs don't have intelligence, they have the ability to match a correct response to a prompt but that's not a product of any internal process that's like what we call intelligence (unless that's used t

by glassounds 2y ago
I'm sure a better philosophical definition exists but off the top of my head: An intelligence should be able to actually understand its input / output (rather than appear to understand), be able to reason about itself recursively*
22.
by glassounds 2y ago
That's part of the problem though: It's not an intelligence, artificial or otherwise, yet we still call it "AI", giving people the impression that LLMs are almost AGI or a step on the way while a true artificial intellig
