I agree, but the reason for all the AI hate is companies pushing LLMs, calling them AIs, and treating them like some miracle that is worth all the energy they consume. If we try to differentiate between LLMs and AI then the AI hate will go away.

Exactly. Llms are a mockery of this tech. They have become so powerful because of the amount of compute we have invested in it.

Apply AI to that instead of an AI that spouts out cheap Shakespeare knockoffs and shitty code.
