This is why it should be outlawed to call every ML model we have today "AI".

Those things are NOT artificial intelligence.

They are specific noise generators. They generate noise that is as similar as possible to noise it learned from, which match the input.

THats it. nothing more.

I agree in principle, but the reality is that we're facing a near future where the output of ML models is indistinguishable from the output of an AI. So if we just replace "AI" with "ML" in all these discussions about ethics, there will be some questions worth considering.

That said, the question of "why doesn't ChatGPT caveat every single response with a reminder that it might be inaccurate" doesn't seem like a meaningful or important discussion.

While I agree that these large language models are not 'artificially intelligent' - I call them machine learning models, no more and no less - the question does rise what intelligence actually is. In what way does our mental meandering differ from that of a deep model, and what makes our mental processes be described as 'thoughts' while those of the server-under-the-stairs are mere 'calculations' producing 'shaped noise'?
