Anne Deschaine (nprofile…eq2z) Erin Kissane (nprofile…4z40) TBF, in Star Trek the AI beings were actually sentient people, and proving that sentience was often the point of the episode.

The current “AI” things are just text (or image, or video) generators based on randomness and probabilistic analysis of existing works, and we know that there isn't any hint of sentience in that.

I'd blame the abuse of the term AI for marketing purposes.
