Scientific consensus. But it’s not “LLMs”. AI covers multitudes of methods, algorithms, models. LLMs fall into sequence modeling / prediction, usually based on transformers nowadays, which is a method from machine learning, which itself is a big branch inside of the term “AI”.
Society collectively when, whenever a person or company talks about AI, they’re talking about chatgpt, Gemini, deepseek, ollama, or whatever other LLM you want to substitute it for
There’s a shit ton of modern AIs that are actively talked about and aren’t LLMs. What about AlphaFold? Or StableDiffusion, or the reinforcement learning running Boston Dynamic’s robots, or like, every computer vision classification task ever, or the software behind Waymo, or GANs like they use in Snapchat filters? Heck, people still consider Deep Blue an AI even though it’s completely obsolete today.
People still call this stuff AI (because it is) even though most of them have nothing to do with LLMs.
I don’t disqualify any of these things from being ai, my point is that if someone hears the word ai without any other context, they’re probably going to think of an llm
LLMs
Who decides that?
