"Generative AI" is a bullshit hype term for language models . Really wish people would stop referring to data scraping as intelligence.

Are those which generate images also Large Language Models? I have been wondering what the technical term for them is...
No, generative ai is a blanket term that covers them both. Lots of people are both forcefully opinionated about this topic, and clueless. Like the person you're responding to
Is it just me or does this article just run on and on without actually proving whatsoever that these jobs were lost to AI?
They even acknowledge that these layoffs are mainly due to over-hiring during the pandemic. I see no concrete proof that AI had anything to do with this. Just speculation.
Does anyone else agree? Perhaps I missed something?
You'll have to forgive us, the article was written by an LLM
They do say straight away that the concept and design departments are getting slashed, now with very few human artists, all who are forced to use AI in their workflow.
The same is happening in VFX and film to some extent, though I know that from personal acquaintances and not the article.
That's it. The rest is conflated as you say. It is a very loooong article so I didn't finish it. Perhaps I missed the real horrors at the end of it.
This is why gamepass is mediocre. They fire the people that can create great games and then think AI can do what they did. Activision and blizzard were great when they had great people working there.
Activision and Blizzard failed before this technology was available to them.
