I think the core problem of the anthropomorphization is calling it AI; intelligence is something usually assigned to humans, so people expect it to replace/substitute a human. So instead of thinking this technology augments existing workflows, they think it will replace it. Sure, animals can be intelligent but AI/AGI/ASI is all human-centric based around a human-baseline. I don't honestly know what it should be called, but I don't think it should be AI.
Maybe I'm wrong honestly. Maybe not anthropomorphizing something is impossible for humans (stick a pair of eyes and a mouth on anything and a person would probably give it a name). I guess people _expect_ AI to replace a human in a given role, but the reality is that they will augment existing workflows, e.g. instead of replacing a digital artist, it would be used to spark creativity and basically eliminate creative blocks.

- Loughla 4y agoI would argue that most people have no idea what that means, and it sounds an awful lot like artificial intelligence already. So. It's not a big leap from that back to artificial intelligence. I think the problem is that there is no easily accessible description of what this is. Like super simple. Statistically close to what you want responses. Big ass database of things that might be similar. I believe both of those are more accessible to Joe Schmoe, even if they miss the technical description.
