I think one of the biggest mistakes we have made as an industry is conflating the words “AI” and “LLMs.” The irony is right there on the surface. Naming is one of the hardest things to do in software, and we’ve done it poorly for the primary tool of software.


What is a “cognitive task”? At what point does fitting a straight line to data stop being a computer procedure and become cognitive? Is everything a computer does AI?
