      It’s as much as “Hallucination” as Tesla’s Autopilot is an Autopilot

      https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_Autopilot

      I don’t propagate techbro “AI” bullshit peddled by companies trying to make a quick buck

      Also, in the world of science and technology a “Standard” means something. Something that’s not a link to a wikipedia page.

      It’s still anthropomorphising software and it’s fucking cringe.

        Oh man, I’m excited for you. Today is the day you learn words can have two meanings! Wait until you see what the rest of the dictionary contains. It is crazy! But not actually crazy, because dictionaries don’t have brains.

          Wow, clever. Did you literally hallucinate this yourself or did you ask your LLM girlfriend for help?

          And by literally, I mean figuratively.

              I know it’s a big word, but surely you can google what anthropomorphization is? Don’t “ask” LLM, those things output garbage. Just google it.

                No fucking shit it’s an anthropomorphization, nothing that can be hosted on GitHub has true human qualities…

                The point is that everyone knows what it means within that context of AI, and using other terminology would only serve to obfuscate your message such that the average person couldn’t understand it as easily.

                Non-living things also don’t have “behavior” (“the way in which someone conducts oneself or behaves”, but—hey look! People started anthropomorphizing things so much that it got added to the dictionary! (“the way in which something functions or operates”.)

                It may not be ideal, and convince some people that LLMs are more human-like than they really are, but the one thing you haven’t done is suggest an alternative that would convey its meaning as effectively to the masses.

                You call it a large language model, but there are much bigger things, it’s only approximating a human language, and it isn’t a physical model.
