I’ve given up on correcting people. “AI” has been erroneously used to describe LLMs enough that it’s in most peoples’ heads as the correct usage. Language changes over time, and even if we’re “right” about the term AI being incorrectly applied here, we don’t get to make choices about how language is used - it’s its own beast and it obeys its own laws.

The makers of Velcro (brand name) would love for people to use “hook and loop fasteners” when referring to velcro (generic), but once enough people are using a term you might as well try to fight the tide.
