Might be something to it. Yes. Fair to acknowledge a certain "commission" recently refined their wording in regards, punctually, to create a slight separation between "AI" and "language models". I can't say I'm _satisfied_ as a whole but I can say I feel there's some truth in what you have stated. The competition for a) timeliness b) "credibility".

Step c) "human pace internet"? Not sure. But it #muses me.
