Just because they tricked half the population into becoming collaborators doesn’t mean it’s not the owning class versus the common people.

Don't get me wrong, there will be fights along political lines, they will be used as cannon fodder but just like any war the opposing soldier is not your enemy, those that guide the actions of those solders are. Propaganda will do one heck of job making sure gullible people believe they have no choice.

Racism is form of cancer but it has been demonstrated many times that on a individual level it can be cured.

That is exactly what i meant, and can definitely respect your position on it. But i hope you are aware that as AI systems go mainstream you may encounter this communicative disconnect more frequently and as the person who knows the proper usage you are better equipped to bridge the gap with the general public then they are to understand the technical meaning.

Calling it wrong is a bit harsh though, in my experience language is a subjective ever evolving construct. The correct way to use language (in my opinion) is whatever way that gets the point across to any listeners.

“When it detects a user may be under 18, Google will notify them that it has changed some of their settings and will offer information about how users can verify their age with a selfie, credit card, or government ID.”

Selfies are useless as proof for young adults and people with a young face. No algorithm can tell a 17.11 yo from a 18 yo so it will flag every single one of them.

This is a way to normalize handing over your details for the next generations. Nothing more.

The good news isn that once teens figure out that other browsers and search engines don't stop them from finding porn they might stick with them.

May also just be a troll tactic. Sowing retrofitted justification with ai. The first comment is bait.

I honestly cant tell anymore. Dead internet theory moving fast on that site.

I don't think real consciousness is required for my own standard of intelligence. I also consider consciousness without intelligence but agree they are often related. I mostly gave it as another example of something that we ourselves are not intelligent enough to have an absolute definition for.

Please dont get me started on gravity. Your poking an nest of autistic bees with that one. I have very strong feelings about it being labeled a fundamental force (which means it cant be explained as emergent from a more fundamental something) yet we all know the gravity “effect” as i have dubed it is caused by the curvature of spacetime.

“Spacetime” somehow not consider a fundamental force, but we have 2 types of radiation to both make the list.

Omfg you started it now.

Electromagnetism is emergent of quantum stuff. Quantum is not a fundamental force. Electromagnetism is. Aaaargh

Science is in shambles and a fucking joke (/s)

I am often very specific about the meaning of some words myself, however in this case i doubt a textbook definition will do.

One can write entire books on what intelligence is and still only scratch the surface.

Words like “reason” and “understanding” are massive on their own.

Same with something like conscious. We do not understand it well enough for any definition to fit.

When people dismiss Ai as not intelligent they are not using a dictionary metric of checkboxes to see if it is or isn't intelligent. They weigh it on their own subjective understanding of intelligence.

To give you a specific example.

I call them “ai” because i have the technical background to understand its field of Computer science but i don't consider llms like claude or o3 at all intelligent.

I do consider them smart, clever and even knowledged but i personally put the bar of intelligent reasoning at a more conscious awareness of its surroundings close to emergent desire for self preservation. An example (but not necessarily) would be demonstrating a continual emotional experience.

This is apples vs pears with 2 languages that make them sound similar.

Ai is a technical domain of computer science. All machine learning is AI here.

But Ai is just short for artificial intelligence and those are 2 normal words with their own meaning and can be used literally. Llms are artificial, they can so some clever things. But is it intelligent? There is lots of subjective room here.

Smart foto filters are fighting a very uphill battle to be considered intelligent.

This is different from AGI which is on par with human intelligence, in practice i don't believe many humans will consider something intelligent until it surpasses themselves but thats besides the point.

Autism is a medical label given to a specific set of symptoms as perceived by others.

The answer to this is neurodivergence, which is how we identify ourselves and its much more inclusive.

Both terms can be used though. I often say i am autistic as a fully embraced part of my identity, but much of that is because most people have never heard of neurodivergence.
