    You get AI tools shoved down your throat everywhere nowadays. Whether you want it and it’s useful or not.

      Please don’t call them AI. They are “Language Learning Models” (or “Spicy Autocorrect” if you want to be cheeky).

      Copilot is no more “intelligent” than Clippy from Microsoft Bob in 1995. It just appears to be to people who also have low intelligence.

        It’s not just text generating AI, like those transformer models, but also image classificators and generators, time series predictors, and a bunch of other stuff you get.

        But yes, even though you seem not to like it, it is AI.

        Copilot is no more “intelligent” than Clippy from Microsoft Bob in 1995.

        I can’t share that experience.

        It just appears to be to people who also have low intelligence.

        That’s a bit condescending, don’t you think?

        The distinction is irrelevant and “AI” is what businesses and normal folks call this stuff. Just like the age old arguments that the media should say something like “cyber criminals” instead of “hackers” or “cloud” is just other people’s computers. LLM, GNU/spicy-auto-correct, whatever. To the populous it’s all “AI”.
