      The video game industry has it’s own definition of what an “AI” is, which is very different than everywhere else.

      To a layman, no it’s not and should not be viewed as the same, either. One is a MASSIVE stack of precomputed matrices (NOT a neural network), the other a stack of predetermined algorithms with some random() thrown in.

      They are all actually and literally completely different in form, function, and computing requirement.

        The precomputed matrices are definitely a neural network. GPT literally stands for generative pre-trained transformer, a transformer being a well known neural network architecture.

          No, a neural network is explicitly a type of architecture that mimics neurons. A transformer is just that: a methematical operation.

          You’re making the mistake of calling a backhoe a “tractor” just because it’s also used for moving dirt around… Yes, both are heavy machinery, but that doesn’t magically make the terms interchangeable.
