Brains are just fancy matrices too. That's why the matrices are called "neural networks".

Escaping “The Matrix” has a mortal connotation.

They're many fancy tensors glued together and passed through activation functions.

The comments in this post are wild. A ton of modern physics is also just fancy matrices. What does the math being based on matrix operations have to do with.. anything..?

Ya. You could also say our brains are just big wet, mushy containers for neurons …. Which is just a moist way of storing and processing fancy matrices.

The field of AI is large and has some embarrassingly simple programs that have absolutely nothing to do with human (or animal) intelligence. LLMs still belong to the more complex examples. But get marketed by and to people who have never heard of ELIZA or the ELIZA effect. And it shows. Most journalists aren't doing their jobs, and politicians ignore all experts for short-term gains.

Yes! I'm sure it's pedantic, but the term AI was coined during the 1956 Dartmouth Conference. It was meant to refer to the emerging field of computerized "intelligence" or decision making.

Technically the ghosts in Pacman are properly AI, just a really simple algorithm. The pioneering Perceptron, backgammon algorithms, automated control. It's all AI, it's just some of it is very primitive.

Whether or not current LLM based AI are"genuinely intelligent" is beside the point.
