    Ugh you guys can be so deliberately obtuse. Yes, if a company makes revenue from an AI offering, and spends a significant amount of their money developing that AI offering then yes, it can be considered an AI company. Just because the feature is stupid or dangerous doesn’t invalidate that accounting.

    Enjoy a little nuance from time to time.

      What? you entirely missed the point. you are adding nuance where none is required.

      Tesla is a car company. Just because musk says “we are AI now” doesn’t just magically make it so.

      I could form a company that makes shoes. Can I suddenly announce I am an AI company?

      Sure, maybe I use AI in my production, and maybe even develop my own models.

      But its still a shoe company.

        Wow, if only something can be two things at once! But no, that’s impossible!
