You need to understand that lemmy has a lot of users that actually understand neural networks and the nuanced mechanics of machine learning FAR better than the average layperson.
It's just semantics in this case. Catloaf's argument is entirely centered around the definition of the word "lie," and while I agree with that, most people will understand the intent behind the usage in the context it is being used in. AI does not tell the truth. AI is not necessarily accurate. AI "lies."
AI doesn’t lie, it just gets things wrong but presents them as correct with confidence - like most people.
