Artificial Insanity

AI summary
Editorial policy

An essay arguing that the term "artificial intelligence" is inappropriate for current generative AI models, based on linguistic definitions and technical background.

Key points

  • •The claim that "artificial intelligence" is an inappropriate name for the current frontier of generative AI models is well-founded.
  • •The naming issue is not with the word "artificial" itself, but is related to the characteristics of large language models (LLMs).
  • •There is a gap between the meaning implied by the term AI and the functions currently realized by the technology.
