I can see someone in the future watching a program run and asking “wow, is that ai? A PERSON typed those cryptic letters? No way!”

“After all, it was one of the first sectors to deploy A.I. programming in the 1980s, with the four ghosts who chase Pac-Man each responding differently to the player’s real-time movements.”
All the lines look blurry when you’re squinting at things from a position of complete ignorance.
In the not too distant future…
NPC: “ChatGPT told me I got ghosts in my blood and I better inject bleach bout it”
AI Corpo: “thankfully, no human programmed it to respond with that, so we are not liable”
Fascist court: “NPC’s family must pay AI Corpo damages for negative publicity”
yeah, we should talk about “probabilistic” vs. “deterministic” behavior instead.
all programs are somewhat intelligent. that’s why computers were originally built, after all, to do a part of our workload. If they were completely stupid, we wouldn’t really use any computers at all, so yes, intelligence is a necessary feature of every program. the question is whether it has well-defined deterministic behavior or not.
