True, ML and such fell under the umbrella term of AI before, but I feel that with most people using it mostly for LLMs (or things like diffusion models, etc.) right now, it has kinda lost that meaning to some extent...
@Tamo240@programming.dev and yourself.
Having triggered this conversation off, I'll just congratulate you both on a quality discussion. I'll admit I used loose terminology in my original post, but that was mainly to get my point across to a general audience. The specificity you both went to is laudable.
Thanks, being a software engineer and working in interferometry I was familiar with some of the details - enough to want to jump in when you were getting downvoted - but I will admit I only found and read the actual paper for the first time because of this thread, as I wanted to be sure on the facts!
