Wanna bet it’s not “AI” ?
- It's probably more "AI" than the LLMs we've been plagued with. This sounds more like an application of machine learning, which is a hell of a lot more promising.
  
  AI and machine learning are very similar (if not identical) things, just one has been turned into a marketing hype word a whole lot more than the other.
  
  Machine learning is one of the many things that is referred to by "AI", yes.
  My thought is the term "AI" has been overused to uselessness, from the nested if statements that decide how video game enemies move to various kinds of machine learning to large language models.
  So I'm personally going to avoid the term.
  
  AI == Computer Thingy that looks kinda "smart" to people that don't understand it. it's like rectangles and squares. you should use the more precise word (CNN, LLM, Stable diffusion) when applicable, just like with rectangles and squares
- Learning machines are ai as well, it's not really what we picture when we think ai but it is none the less.
- This seems exactly like what I would have referred to as AI before the pandemic. Specifically Deep Learning image processing. In terms of something you can buy off the shelf this is theoretically something the Cognex Vidi Red Tool could be used for. My experience with it is in packaging, but the base concept is the same.
  Training a model requires loading images into the software and having a human mark them before having a very powerful CUDA GPU process all of that. Once the model has been trained it can usually be run on a fairly modest PC in comparison.
