Fuck this.
I remember in the 00s imagining what AI might be like.
I did not imagine soulless chat bot that was going to steal all the water.
Because it's not real ai. It's just marketing.
There's no guarantee, that team AI wouldn't be even worse.
You play too many video games if you think AI means Cortana. Computer scientists have been building artificial intelligence since the 1950s
Algorithms and expert machines a weren't and aren't AI. Can't say that I've ever played Halo so have no idea about that. This is Lemmy though, so you shouldn't be surprised that I've watched most if Trek, read The Culture and the Asimov robot books.
Expert machines are AI, genetic algorithms are AI, state machines are AI, and the perceptron was AI.
That's because AI stands for artificial intelligence, and all of those technologies are attempts to artificially produce intelligence.
Thanks, gatekeeper! Is margarine real butter? Is saccharine real sugar? Is Lemmy real Internet? Is baseball real sports?
I bet it's all marketing, all the way down. Nothing is real.

Yes well part of it
It's just rounders. A primary school game.
