I've got to throw in an asterisk or two. I'm interested in machine 
learning, particularly on edge devices, and it is considered a subset of 
AI.  

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_learning

As for the fascination with LLMs and related technologies I think the 
hangover after the party ends will be a bitch. AI has a bad history of 
over promising and under performing, resulting in what is termed an AI 
winter.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_winter

The winter of '87 would be a minor snow flurry compared to a potential 
winter in '27.
