“now”? AI as a field of research originates from the 60s, playing games of checkers and solving algebraic problems using what we’d now call “basic algorithms”.
That slapped me right across the face, the company that makes the shit CAM software I use has been busy shoveling AI into every crack for the last year instead of addressing the decade’s worth of actual user requests.
Electricity is basically magic. It only seems mundane because we take it for granted. If sorcery, the force, investiture, or any other fictional magic system you could think of were real, we’d harness it, get used to it, and stop thinking of them as magic too.
Dont let familiarity diminish the sense of wonder. Understanding doesn’t make electricity less magical, it just makes you a wizard.
This picture being generated aside, do people just call all automation “AI” now because they can’t tell the difference?
Sadly yes.
Lots of basic algorithms are now called AI
Back to the 90s, where in games you’d add in some AI opponents

I hate everything about it.
a2 + b2=AI
Use our new AI agent to help you calculate Pythagoras - Some tech company
It’s like Pythagoras, but wrong half the time.
I thought it was E = mc^2 + AI
Yes? Anything electronic is AI. Just like electricity used to be basically magic to people.
Human kind loves to blame things they don’t understand for 10x longer than it would take to learn about it.
