To me that means an autonomous being that understands what it is.

A little thought experiment: How would you determine whether another human being understands what it is? What would that look like in a machine?

As far as I'm concerned, "intelligence" in the context of AI basically just means the ability to do things that we consider to be difficult. It's both very hand-wavy and a constantly moving goalpost. So a hypothetical pacman ghost is intelligent before we've figured out how to do it. After it's been figured out and implemented, it ceases to be intelligent but we continue to call it intelligent for historical reasons.

Fair take. I never considered AI to be "true intelligence", but maybe that should be attributed to the vagueness of the term "intelligence".

The "artificial" in AI appears to be losing its meaning the same way that "literally" is losing its original meaning.

I would just like to take this opportunity to plug a RL community I started: !reinforcement_learning@lemmy.ca

I haven't been posting very much because I don't know what others are interested in seeing, so it'd be nice to hear if anyone has input on that. The field is so big and everything within it is so niche that it feels like anything that's interesting to me would basically only be interesting to me and probably also end up doxing me.

An interesting study I recall from my neuroscience classes is that we "decide" on what to do (or in this case, what to say) slightly before we're aware of the decision, and then our brain comes up with a story about why we made that decision so that it feels like we have agency.

There's no generally accepted answer. That's the point.

I can understand some negative sentiment in contexts where it's used dismissively (e.g. "I'm [self-diagnosed] autistic and I don't have this issue, so you're obviously just a bad person"), or if you use it as an excuse to be a shitty person. Although I'd say that a professional diagnosis wouldn't make any of these scenarios better.

In your case, you're experiencing problems and you're trying to solve them. A self diagnosis helps a lot in narrowing down what the causes could be and help you prioritize different potential solutions to try. It makes no sense to handicap yourself and try to fix things like a neurotypical person when you have good reason to believe you're not.

Your oranges are cut WRONG.

That is all.

Have a nice day.

I think you'll get a better answer to your question if you ask "what would an ideal world president look like?" The qualities that make for a good human leader should be the same as that which make a good AI leader.

Regarding your last point, you could in theory also penalize for marking non AI generated images as AI generated.
