    At my work, it’s become common for people to say “AI level” when giving a confidence score. Without saying anything else, everyone seems to perfectly understand the situation, even if hearing it for the first time.

    Keep in mind, we have our own in-house models that are bloody fantastic, used for different sciences and research. We’d never talk ill of those, but it’s not the first thing that comes to mind when people hear “AI” these days.

      “Keep in mind, we have our own in-house models that are bloody fantastic, used for different sciences and research.”

      I’m a scientist who has become super interested in this stuff in recent years, and I have adopted the habit of calling the legit stuff “machine learning”, reserving “AI” for the hype machine bullshit
