A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype.
Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Okay, everyone except you is talking specifically about the word agentic and not agent.
https://www.merriam-webster.com/slang/agentic
It seems pretty clear that it came to prominence last year, so it's novel now for the majority of the population even though it used to be technical jargon, which is exactly my point.
Im not sure if anybody was using specifically the word "agentic" 50 year ago for software, although it clearly was used in other context from the link. I'm guessing they were mostly saying software agent and the "ic" at the end is relatively new.
I genuinely though segue was spelled like the brand name. I guess you learn something new everyday.
