Am I the only one getting agitated by the word AI (Artificial Intelligence)?

Real AI does not exist yet,
atm we only have LLMs (Large Language Models),
which do not think on their own,
but pass turing tests
(fool humans into thinking that they can think).

Imo AI is just a marketing buzzword,
created by rich capitalistic a-holes,
who already invested in LLM stocks,
and now are looking for a profit.

    In my first AI lecture at uni, my lecturer started off by asking us to spend 5 minutes in groups defining “intelligence”. No group had the same definition. “So if you can’t agree on what intelligence is, how can we possibly define artificial intelligence?”

    AI has historically just described cutting edge computer science at the time, and I imagine it will continue to do so.
