Randomness? The broad use by the general public, mainstream publications, and many experts (e.g. Google calls their Bard LLM an AI) isn't random. Search for "generative ai llm" to see for yourself.

> Randomness?

You were talking about «central authority for determining correctness». I replied that no authority does not mean that there is no "more or less wrong or right".

> Google calls their Bard LLM an AI

It is a .com :) , what did you expect?

I never said there isn't right or wrong, only that what is correct is determined by broad usage.

Actually, it's a .google

Others - like us - call "correct" what seems to be "more right". In the context, I proposed that calling LLMs AI has improper sides - substantially, irregardless of the number of people who would adhere to that use, and which I suspect do so mostly out of inattention.

> Actually, it's a .google

Yes, but substantially, what I meant is that of course a commercial entity («.com») is using a language that lures glamorously, "sales oriented", before precision.
