This one's obviously fake because of the capitalisation errors and
..
but the fact that it's otherwise (kinda) plausible shows how useless AI is turning out to be.It's because it's not AI. They're chatbots made with machine learning that used social media posts as training data. These bots have zero intelligence. Machine learning and neural networks might lead to AI eventually, but these bots aren't it.
You're claiming that Generative AI isn't AI? Weird claim. It's not AGI, but it's definitely under the umbrella of the term "AI", and at the more advanced end (compared to e.g. video game AI).
It depends in which context you want to use the word AI. As a marketing term it is definitely correct to currently do so. But from a scientific standpoint all the terms AI, ML and even neural networks are disputed to be correct, as they are all far from the biological reality. AGI imo is the worst of all because it's just what AI hype men came up with to claim that they have true AI but are working on this even truer AI that is just around the corner if we just spend 5 more gazillions on GPUs. Trust me bro.
Point is, saying that GPT is AI depends on your definition of what constitutes AI.
I would say that any form of ML is AI, even that one scratch project that teaches a tiny neural network to add 2 numbers.
