Court Bans Use of 'AI-Enhanced' Video Evidence Because That's Not How AI Works (gizmodo.com)

A judge in Washington state has blocked video evidence that’s been “AI-enhanced” from being submitted in a triple murder trial. And that’s a good thing, given the fact that too many people seem to think applying an AI filter can give them access to secret visual data.

I think we need to STOP calling it "Artificial Intelligence". IMHO that is a VERY misleading name. I do not consider guided pattern recognition to be intelligence.

Humanity has entered the chat

Seriously though, what name would you suggest?

Maybe guided pattern recognition (GPR).

Or Bob.

Calling it Bob is not going to help discourage people from attributing intelligence. They'll start wishing "Bob" a happy birthday.

Do not personify the machine.

Maybe Boob then.
