My extended thinking mode:

**Question:** {{< abbr AI "Artificial Intelligence" >}} is x/y/z. So what do you think about AI?

  > AI but which AI? {{< abbr GPT "Generative pre-trained transformer" >}}? ChatGPT? {{< abbr LLM "Large Language Models" >}}? Just the model? Tooling? Images?
  > Diffusion, {{< abbr GANs "Generative adversarial networks" >}}, {{< abbr VAEs "Variational autoencoders" >}}? Autoregression? What? Using chatbots? Agents? Harnesses?
  > Voices? Runtimes? So AI is amazing, but which AI dang it? The
  > product, the technology, or the industry? The market or the consumers? {{< abbr NLP "Natural Language Processing" >}}?
  > Deep learning? Protein folding? Cameras? Drones? Wait. AI automation? Automation is amazing!
  > Hold on. What is this brilliant use of contextual magic? Fool! You're out of time!

**Response:** I don't know. AI is x/y/z?
