"Nazis" are actually a great example of my point, you just didn't realize it!
When we say “Fuck National Socialism” are we inadvertently helping the “Socialist” companies by referring to their products as “Socialism”?

Well said! Echos my feelings exactly.
Historically the "artificial" part of "AI" implied the intelligence was real, but "constructed" or "not naturally evolved".
He's a good barometer to check in with and guage how far we've strayed from a lot of the idealism of the 1980s. Someone has to keep the flame alive.
nothing important ever happens here
Unrelated but here is list of things I find to be some of the most important activities I can think of:
learn
be exposed to new ideas
socialize
obtain skills
be informed
Hah, I love this. Stealing it.
I like slop constructors lol
It seems most people don't know what exactly is being protested now. And it seems to me that perpetuating a false narrative for the sake of convenience is helping those we claim to be against.
"Language evolves and changes" describes evolving and changing language, not keeping it the same. Language evolves into more specific definitions, not less specific.
For example: you might say "LLMs are one form of intelligence", I don't agree with that, but it makes logical sense. But claiming "LLMs are the same thing as intelligence" changes the definition of "intelligence" to a much broader umbrella. If you want to change that definition then you also need to invent a new word that means "non-LLM intelligence".
But in your example the scientists didn't stick to the term "atoms". New terms were created ("Protons", "Neutrons" etc) to describe the new thing.
They didn't abandon the term "atom", they kept it's definition and created new words for things that didn't meet that definition.
