The current discussions of LLM and algorithmic learning being referred to as "Artificial Intelligence", is super duper frustrating to all us science fiction fans. There is no AI in the Asmiov sense, no one is even trying to make that form of AI.

Having said all that, and this is the coldest take ever. Robots shouldn't kill people.

At best, LLMs are a small slice of a pie that would constitute an artificial intelligence.

I suppose you could look at this 2 ways: either, when we talk about the state of AI, we could say that, yes, we have it, but only this one small part that kinda works ok; or (the more traditional route) would be to say that AI doesn’t exist until all of the constituent technologies have been both developed and assembled.

Obviously, we know which one the marketing departments of many companies choose.
