Because calling it AI was a marketing decision. The real name is Large Language Model, which sums up how it works. It takes trillions of texts and uses them to create sentences that seem germane to your prompt. Nothing in there is "thinking" in the way you understand it.
Vacant homes in the US: 15 million Median home sales price: $435,300. What someone would need to earn annually to afford a median-priced home: $121,000 Median salary in the US: $62,192 There isn’t a housing crisis. There’s a housing affordability crisis.
