Nope. My wife and I watched the last one in Broken Bow, Nebraska.

Hopefully it will sunny in MontrΓ©al.
We'll get a minute or so of blackness.

No traveling, but I'll turn my head to watch it from my bedroom window.

It will be total here, so no need to travel unless it's overcast.

Not we. My little sister and a few others will be at Lake Champlain.
My wife and I were thinking of going to the San Antonio area, but the timing hasn't worked out.

Hi All,
I know AI is all the rage at the moment, I have been wanting to try something since Co-pilot was installed in an update. A battle between ChapGPT, Co-pilot and any other AI. Get one to pose a question, the other answer it, feed the answer into the other and so on until well who knows? Would like to see that happen, also the famous 'Well What Do You Think?'... Or am I just being Evil  !

Personally, I have a pet peeve about calling it AI right now.

Back in college (late 80s) AI was the realm of "expert systems". It has advanced since then.

Your sentiment touches on an interesting and nuanced debate within the field of artificial intelligence and technology. The terms "AI" (Artificial Intelligence) and "LLM" (Large Language Models) refer to different concepts, though they are related.
**Artificial Intelligence (AI)** is a broad term that encompasses the development of computer systems able to perform tasks that normally require human intelligence. These tasks include understanding natural language, recognizing patterns, solving complex problems, and more. AI aims to mimic or replicate human cognitive functions, and it can be applied in various ways, from simple algorithms in a calculator to complex systems driving autonomous vehicles or providing personalized recommendations on streaming platforms.
**Large Language Models (LLM)**, on the other hand, are a specific type of AI focused on understanding, generating, and interacting with human language. LLMs like GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) are trained on vast amounts of text data and can generate coherent, contextually relevant text based on the input they receive. They are a subset of AI technologies, showcasing the advancements in natural language processing and understanding.
The distinction you're hinting at might stem from the perception that the term "AI" is sometimes used too broadly or ambitiously, suggesting a level of intelligence or autonomy that current technology does not yet possess. In reality, most of what is popularly referred to as AI involves machine learning algorithms, including LLMs, that are highly specialized and operate within defined parameters set by their human creators.
The debate around terminology also reflects concerns about AI's societal impact, ethical considerations, and the future of human-machine interaction. By preferring not to use "AI" to describe current technologies, you might be emphasizing the gap between the capabilities of present-day systems and the concept of true artificial general intelligence (AGI) β machines that can understand, learn, and apply knowledge across a wide range of tasks, similar to a human being.
In essence, your preference for terminology might be advocating for a more precise language that accurately reflects the current state of technology and its limitations, fostering a clearer understanding among the general public and within the tech community.

All good comments.

This is one of the things I'm getting at. It's more of a marketing term today and what is called 'AI' today is really a small subset of the overall field.

I see news this morning that the US government is now requiring every agency to have a 'Chief AI Officer' to handle some of these issues.

When I was first introduced to the term AI many years ago it was (at least in my mind) couched in terms as a self-aware thinking machine. Much like the character Lt. Commander Data of Star Trek, though not necessarily as a bi-pedal android.
To me it seems the term AI has been hijacked by those hyping their systems to make them seem more than they are. With LLMs leading the charge in a "fake it till you make it" kind of way: "The prompt closely matches with this pattern in my training data. Which indicates this type of response. Respond with factual data relevant to the prompts if available, else make something up." - vastly oversimplified I know. Don't get me wrong. I find their capabilities amazing: generating pictures and video from prompts, composing prose, writing/explaining code and what all else. I also find watching Penn and Teller make things disappear and reappear as amazing feats as well. I don't know how it's done, but I know it's not real, it's not magic. And they are the first to admit that it's all a trick.
As with many things I suppose the clever marketeers have won the terminology day as it seems the term AI has indeed evolved into a broader meaning as you state. But, I still find myself aligning more with the OP in a curmudgeonly, get-off-my-lawn kind of way. When I see the term AI I personally tend to think of it not so much as "Artificial" Intelligence but as "Anthropomorphic" Intelligence.
BTW, none of this will cause me to avoid using AI (whatever the definition) when I think it will benefit me.

Or perhaps it is just a marketing term. Which has little or nothing to do with anything in computer science.
