      Language models are just one type of AI, so it’s overly reductive to say thay all AI is like this. The computer players in Mario Kart are also AI, for example.

          According to this shit I just made up, 95% of all quotes come from Benjamin Franklin. Using equally loose definitions, my lies are AI.
