😆 In general ‘AI’ is a very poor name for a bunch of technologies that enable computers to do better pattern matching. Even worse, #OpenAI is now using ‘AGI’ to mean better-than-human level performance—at what task exactly is unclear—which isn’t what the phrase is generally understood to mean at all. The more you look into this whole area, the more you realise there’s a lot of smoke and mirrors: marketing hype dressed up as technological revolution. #AI #AIEthics
