    Edited AI to GenAI for the pedants out there

    Except GenAI/GAI stands for “General Artificial Intelligence”, not Generative. The latter term was coined when the former was used to point out how much of a scam the hype-bubble of “AI” was, to capitalize on the ignorant not knowing the difference and conflating the two.

      I have not seen the term in this context before though, in my opinion the far more common acronym is AGI. I thought genAI referred to generative ai as well.
