"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

He's not talking about "IQ" intelligence...like, we will all be stupid, and will have to pay them to think for us.
He's talking about information. The kind of "intelligence" that governments gather about other governments, or members of the public.
Which is still fucked up, because he's implying that they will know everything about everyone, and they will eventually charge a subscription fee for access to that information.
I think if he had intent behind the choice in dropping "artificial" he means to equate AI models with human intelligence. "Intelligence" in your framing is definitely a subset of the data they wish to have exclusive to their platform. They may also want to generate such intel by capturing the interface between human and computer such that targets with poor ops sec would spill the beans to their AI gf.
They've abstracted the sexy dtf spy into whatever grok is.
