Fuck AI

I literally said one message earlier that my phone predates the outbreak of degenerative AI. I got it in 2021. If that's "hilariously old" to you, so be it. It works (unlike degenerative AI).

The only bit of marketing terminology that has multiple high profile university research labs dedicated to it since the 50s.

The intelligence being referred to in AI is not the same thing.

Now ask yourself this, Sparky. Why was it called "Artificial Intelligence"? If it was, and I quote:

... comparing the abstract notion of a triangle to a rabbit.

I'll give you a little clue: "artificial intelligence" gets more research grants than does any of these:

• string of fancy-schmancy if/then statements
• brain-damaged linear classifier
• string of fancy-schmancy if/then statements disguised as a flowchart
• curve fitting through brain-damaged linear classifier
• precious, fussy line-drawer
• shallow pattern matcher but hey at least it eats all the available hardware (phase I)
• scoreboard-directed brute force button masher
• "what if we ran the shallow pattern matcher backwards" but hey, at least it eats more than all the available hardware (phase II)
