Every time the name gets co-opted to mean something else. These days "artificial intelligence" == "machine learning and natural language processing" which is most definitely not what TFA is about.
- SeanLuke 13y agoNo. There is a perfectly good term which has been around for a very long time: Strong AI. In no context does this mean "ML + NLP" (which, by the way, AI itself hardly means). I think terms like AGI are just rebranding.
- maaku 13y agoI don't think strong AI has quite the history you think it does. It's one of these later coinages. Also, it has separate quasi-related meanings in philosophy of the mind...
- JohnHaugeland 13y agoStrong AI is one of those hand-wavey things that makes you sound like you're talking about something well defined, when you actually aren't. Has always struck me as counter-productive. Frustrating stuff.
