I hate how our culture is so enamored with the science fiction of killer robots that they'll mislabel machine learning as "#AI". They're ascribing a certain sentience, autonomy and intent to things like #ChatGPT that just isn't there. It's not "intelligent" any more than any other program or script; it's just really good at guessing what the next logical word in a sentence should be based on your input and context clues in the conversation, and sometimes those words are total bullshit.
