I think they're saying people want to cancel ai, not AL - and playing on how in most fonts capital i and lowercase L look the same.
That's why I call it 'a.i.' because fuck giving that shit the honour of capitalising it, and also as someone that sometimes goes by Al (lowercase L).
Thanks. I feel dumb now.
I'm sorry you feel dumb, and you don't need to - we all have our "whoosh" moments. I only intended to clear the air regarding my long time hero Weird Al.
I think that was the commenter's intent, so don't feel too bad
