    I never said it was Jesus just that it’s currently being used effectively in the fields of medicine, biology, and material science. I can’t do anything about gallons of water being used to generate bad art or do someone’s homework but the comment I replied to was saying “instead” lol.

      You’re using the old definition of AI.

      Machine learning is what used to be called AI, before they figured out that it wasn’t.

      Now LLMs are AI, even though they’re not.

      Machine learning and neural nets are fine, the current “AI” pushed on everything everywhere, is not fine.

        So:
        “AI” = Term specifically for ML tailored towards brain dead end users, as we see with image gen, LLMs etc.

        The original commenter specifically said: Using AI to eg. cure cancer.
        That means specifically using LLMs etc. to cure cancer. Which is Bullshit. It’s way less effective than simpler, specialized neural networks. Therefore, the original commenter wrote bullshit.
