Re: language (Re: Proposal -- Interpretation of DFSG on Artificial Intelligence (AI) Models)

I'm also very uncomfortable speaking about AIs similar like I don't
like the term IP=intellectual property...

It would be worthwhile to restrict ourselves to "LLM" for these things
since "AI" is a much broader term and many other technologies (past or
future) may be described as "AI" whilst not being LLMs.

The GR as proposed would apply to a lot of things that are not LLMs,
though. I think the right terminology for what we're currently talking
about might be "machine learning model," which encompasses a wider set of
onstructions from processed training data without limiting them to only
large-language models.

This is an important point, which I subscribe. Since its inception over 60
years ago, "Artificial Intelligence" is fluffy marketspeak (even if spoken
and embraced by reknown scientists). I have adopted the term "Apparent
Intelligence", proposed by Offray Luna (as the generated complex
answers/behavior that _are seen from the outside_ as something intelligent.
