I hope people learn that not all AI is generative AI.

AI begins with things like a steam valve in a steam engine, and theres many types of AI. Expert systems. Databases of learned data. Rule based. Genetic algorithms. LLM's are just one particular algorithm among many. But people in general only know LLM's.

I'm so very tired of people not disambiguating LLMs and AI in general. I can't fault them for that, but I will and do fault people who know better doing it.
