If you can code it, it isn't really AI.

AI is able to make the connections when given the data by itself. The problem is that the data required is usually enormous, so the quantity of data is more valued than the quality.

thx I'm gonna use that sentence so much now, I'm so tired of hearing people calling themselves AI experts when they merely do regular programing, like yes your program is pretty cool, but no it's not AI.

"but... but it reacts to its environment, it's intelligent" NO BECAUSE THEN LITERALLY EVERYTHING WOULD BE "INTELLIGENT" and the word AI would be useless, as we have been doing that for decades with if/else

sory im angery
