I don't consider executives to be professionals or experts in AI in any sense of the words. For engineers, we agree they use AI to refer to the field generally. I don't know why you're bringing up the ELIZA effect, that doesn't really have anything to do with this unless you think AI = conscious or something similar.

Again, this problem only exists because you are redefining AI to mean something that it doesn't. Engineers use it to refer to the field in general, and (usually) don't have any delusions about it meaning the AI is conscious. Executives say whatever they want to get as much money as possible and I don't care how they're using the term. Only you, incongruously using it to mean something beyond what the field is today, are getting confused when engineers use it to refer to the field's current capabilities.

heteronormative to a cringe extent

Implying only women can have long wavy hair and painted nails? Have you ever seen what the rock/metal scene looked like in the 80s?

Ah yes, editing tux is actually super woke. Got me.

Words are more than distracting sounds that come from a hole in your head.

Hilariously yes. The fact that primarily Nazis feed it and warp its data and output continuously to suit their needs is what makes it a political tool rather than being innately political.

I will absolutely die on this hill.

What possible beneficial use can it have? Teaching rational humans like you and me how to recognize dog whistle bullshit and how to deal with it properly - up to and including RUD and permanent disposal.

IMO, this level of hair-splitting is why online arguments are frustrating and unproductive.

By your measure, no inanimate object isn't a tool, and therefore no inanimate object has inherent politics. This is an obtuse and useless point to make and I have no idea why you have wasted so many characters doing so.

A flag is a tool that ships use to communicate when sailing, so a nazi flag is an apolitical tool.

See how stupid that sounds? Understand how useless a point of view that is?

yall would be running cuck license Operating Systems if it werent for him and RMS

The best institutions outgrow the failings of their founders. Let's hope Free Software can.

I mean you can shit on this descision and still respect his legacy. Linus still has one the greatest achievement in the foss space with the Linux kernel, and it's fustrating seeing the acceptance of AI code into it.

and it's fustrating seeing the acceptance of AI code into it.

and its frustating to see pushback against it.

Locking the post because the Twitter-grade arguments are starting again.
