AI is already a buzzword. If instead to say AI for chat gpt and the rest, they called them LLM, AI wouldn't be a buzzword

Yeah that ship sailed months ago. AI is practically a meaningless term at this point.
AI = "Give me money. Money me! Money now!"
(feels sad for the new product that finally incorporated blockchain, cloud computing, and IoT and now feeling left in the dust)
Make it stop.
I replace the word ai with computer from now on
AI was a nonsense buzzword 5 years ago. It's just been cranked up to 11 since ChatGPT.
The product advertises its AI, the person who implemented the feature was hired as a data scientist, and the technical solution is called logistic regression.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
From large language model-powered voice assistants in cars to the Rabbit R1, the technology you heard about everywhere was AI.
AI has entered the public consciousness: it’s cool and hip to place it front and center in a product, a sign that companies are ambitious and forward thinking.
This is why we’re seeing everything from Walmart using AI models to restock your pantry to car companies cramming ChatGPT into their dashboard to give drivers something to talk to.
Arun Chandrasekaran, an analyst at Gartner, said this is normal for many companies, but it does run the risk of overpromising to consumers when they find out something marked as AI isn’t actually like ChatGPT.
This creates an impression that if a consumer uses a product branded as AI, they expect it to behave the same way as a chatbot that “thinks” like a human.
In the next few years, we’re going to see features and products that don’t need a chatbot or a powerful large language model.

I love this bot
The rabbit r1 is kinda interesting. Or would be, if it was either: a) an app that I have installed on my phone, replacing Google assistant, Bixby, siri, etc... b) a smartwatch. Why it needs to be this rediculous form factor is beyond me.
The ridiculous (and strangely beautiful) form factor is the only reason we're talking about it. At this point, if you want to launch a product and get eyeballs on it, you partner with Teenage Engineering and lean into whatever comes out as a result.
It's probably not going to be an actually useful device but it would have been even less successful if it was an app.
