edit to clarify a misconception in the comments, this is an instagram post so “caption” refers to the description under the image or video

as an example, this text i am typing now is also a “caption”

just saying because someone started a debate misunderstanding this to be about subtitles (aka “closed captions”) and that’s just not the case 👍

    It’s kind of the other way around, we’ve always had AI, it used to just basically mean a computer making some decision based on data. Like a thermostat changing the heating in response to a temperature change.

    Then we got LLMs and because they are good at pretending to have complex reasoning ability, AI as a term started to always mean “computer with near human level intelligence” which of course they are absolutely not.

      There was a book I can’t remember, the whole thesis was exactly that. “AI is whatever automates the decision making process” not any group of algos
