    Imo, the current meaning for AI is just another way for companies to take even more of your data and embed more invasive technologies.

    Edit: No thanks

      Selecting text from images has nothing to do with AI and predates the AI hype craze.

        Err… That’s definitively AI.

        AI is just any computer algorithm that does a task that would be aimed to require human intelligence.

        Identifying text in an image is a non-trivial task, so OCR is a type of AI algorithm.

        That said, I assume “AI phones” are probably not using the term AI in the general sense; presumably they just mean that it uses MM-LLMs somehow.

          Wrong. People like you are exactly what is wrong with the overhype in IT

            Just FYI, I’m pretty sure you’re confusing “AI” and “AGI”.

            Even enemy behavior is videogames is “AI”, but obviously is not “General Intelligence”.

            I think the problem is Hollywood confusing the two terms, so people think AI = Skynet, but that’s not the technical definition in Computer Science.

      I do use text generation whenever I’m doing a simple small bit of coding on hobby projects and want to write a function without navigating pages of stackoverflow for the right syntax. Although even then, I rarely actually am able to use the function without some form of slight adjustments

    I’d love to know what an “AI phone” actually means, given that AI is the hottest buzzword to slap on everything since “blockchain”.

    Does it mean it just connects to chat gpt? Does it run a chatbot locally? Does it do image generation and deep fakes? Does it monitor all my activity to recommend stuff google now style? Does it create a realistic personality I’ll fall in love with like in the movie “her”? What does it mean‽

    I for one would like a local AI assistant of some sort, but I’d also want to be in full control of which of my files, correspondences, locations, contacts, purchases and sex-toys the assistant is aware of on an item to item basis.

    Of course that’s not going to happen because fuck my privacy.

    Instead we’re going to be forcefed something extremely privacy-invasive, which will really just be a new vehicle for selling stuff to us that we don’t need and eventually it will leak all of the data.
