It's artificial but it's not intelligence. Let's call it machine learning.
Analytical machine learning is an excellent technology for identifying patterns in data.
Generative machine learning is a Venture Capital-fuelled dumpster fire that will crash as soon as people have to pay the actual non-subsidised price for it.
I can run a generative machine learning model for free on my laptop now, and it will continue to work for 10 years with no additional cost and without connecting to the Internet.
"Venture Capital-fuelled dumpster fire" only really applies to future development work on pushing the models, not in running the models once they have been developed. There is no inherent difference between traditional ml and llms beyond hype and the amount of shitty companies trying to sell it as a product. It's all just a lot of math
