A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

If it's about computer science, then use terms from computer science instead of misleading and dishonest terms from biology.
"Data processing" is fine.
From biology. Or psychology. Or neurology. Or philosophy, even.
It's pretty clear from their writing that the original AI researchers thought they were on the path to the "intelligence" talked of in these other disciplines and that it only became the very narrowly-defined field mentioned above years after their abject failure at actually capturing what anybody else would call intelligence.
And now the term "artificial intelligence" is essentially just a marketing term, with as much meaning as any other random pair of words used for marketing purposes.
