This is why I hate the term "AI" to describe LLMs, which only passively have to do with ML algorithms.
Both are excellent at what they're designed to do. One examines breasts and one generates natural sounding language. It's only when you start using it for something it's not designed to do when you run into problems. Applies to both.
