So the IRS is using "AI", except no one knows how and the closest explanation is that they're querying their database with an order by clause.
Are we calling anything tech AI now? How long till I can say my analog clock is AI based?
Ask your clock
As an analog clock, my knowledge cut off is September 2021. It's possible I may have become AI based since then, but it's not included in my data set
This isn't a new phenomenon. I have a copy of Graceland on vinyl and it says that you can call it AI right on the album cover. And that's from the 80s.
There's already been a new flavor of coke developed and allegedly chosen by AI. If that's not some kind of singularity moment, I don't know what is.
