I can see a function for AI here. Scan texts, Tag and keyword them at scale. Probably this was done already but maybe a new gen tool can do it better and faster. I'm just wondering if they actually have people that will look at this and develop best practices or is this just the.. here you go.. now be more productive, were firing 20pct staff. I know what they say they will do.. but let's see how this turns out.
This is why I hate everything being called AI, because nothing is AI. It's all advanced machine learning algorithms, and each serve different purposes. It's why I'll say LLM, facial recognition, deepfake, etc.
Because I have no doubt that there are a lot of machine learning tools and algorithms that could greatly assist humans in archival work, Google Gemini and ChatGPT aren't the ones that come to mind.
Machine learning is just a specific field in AI. It's all AI. Anything that attempts to mimic intelligence is.
All the things you mentioned are neural networks which are some of the oldest AIs.
AI used to mean sentience, or close enough to truly mimic it, until marketing departments felt that machine learning was good enough.
I'm sorry, a computer using matrices to determine hot dog, or not hot dog, because it's model has a million hot dog photos in it, is not AI.
LLMs don't reason. There is no intelligence, artificial or otherwise.
It's doing a lot of calculations in cool new ways, sometimes. But that's what computers do, and no matter how many copilot buttons Microsoft sells, there's no AI coming out of those laptops.

This is just literally not true.
Point 3 is what LLMs are.
You are thinking of general artificial intelligence from sci-fi
This is what artificial intelligence actually means. Solving problems that traditionally require intelligence
Path finding algorithms in games are AI. And have always been referred to as such. We studied them my AI module at uni.
No that's the corporate perverted saleable product of an academic field
No it's a neural network. They may be over-hyped but they are 100% an AI.
The bot is hallucinating entire conversations again.
The first time I saw AI was on the N64.
