AI’s biggest problem may be that we named it “intelligence”

A Reddit post suggests that a fundamental problem with AI stems from naming it "intelligence." This perspective is supported by research such as LaCroix, Mallory, and Luccioni's "Strategic Polysemy in AI Discourse" (arxiv.org/abs/2604.21043) and Ji et al.'s "Survey of Hallucination in Natural Language Generation" (arxiv.org/abs/2202.03629), implying that the term itself might misrepresent AI's true nature and capabilities.

This Reddit post uniquely frames the AI naming convention as a core problem, unlike typical discussions focusing on technical limitations or ethical concerns.
