    I know what they’re trying to say, but I really wish these writers would use accurate terms. “AI” aren’t intelligent in any meaningful sense, they’re just pattern generators, and they were never getting “smarter”, the patterns that they were capable of outputting were just getting more complex.

      Yeah 100%. It’s like adopting the language of your oppressor. The hucksters have been selling their “learning”, “intelligence”, “minds”, etc. for so long that many people have internalized it. Let’s please return to reality and using scientific terms like data, function, average, statistics, etc.
