This is part of the overall assault on knowledge that the administration is undertaking.
Everything that has made this nation a shining beacon in any way whatsoever is being dismantled
-- with the worst aspects of American history being held up as aspirational.
Please call Congress if you are able.

I suspect we’re doing something similar to the tank classifier when we ascribe intelligence to AIs: there are patterns such as (for example) grammatical correctness which we •associate• with this abstract thing called “intelligence,” and we thus mis-infer the existence of everything else we associate with the notion of “intelligence” when we see (for example) correct grammar.
Or should we just call the machine intelligent because we classify it as intelligence because our brains, which we assume are intelligent, think it fits the pattern of intelligence? And now you see what the OP means about “begging the question of intelligence.”

Adobe Acrobat on MacOS just had an update that silently turns-on AI clips.
You need to go into Preferences and turn off "Show AI video cards" (and it is good to turn off everything else as well.)
This is especially important (to turn off the Acrobat AI gunk for people with fiduciary and professional secrecy and privacy obligations - like doctors, attorneys, accountants, etc.)
