My Thoughts on Renaming AI to Super Intelligence 0 ▲ Daniel Miessler 7 hours ago · Tech · hide · 0 comments I'm torn on this one.First, I hate it because it feels like the Gulf of America. But I also really like it, both as a name and as a strategy.Both of these reduce down to "artificial" being derogatory.In the real internet of things I also used SI instead of AI, but there I called it "synthetic" intelligence instead of "artificial" intelligence. Same reason. Artificial is just a bad name for anything real. And AI is real.I prefer the term "synthetic" vs. "artificial" intelligence, as its capabilities will end up being just as real as our own despite having non-biological origins.The Real Internet of Things (2016)Strategically, I actually agree with Our Great Leader and others that Super Intelligence is far more optimistic, and descriptive. Basically better marketing. And marketing matters.So I guess I like the proposed name. But I'm not happy about it.Notes🤖 AIL 1: Daniel wrote this post.
