    I think you mean “generative”. If so, you are entirely accurate in your description.

      I meant AI as a normal person would know it today.

        That would then be ‘generative’. It’s important to note the concept of “general AI” exists and it means a machine that can actually think and reason (for example, humans have “general intelligence”). The “AI” that exists today is called “generative” because it doesn’t actually think, it just generates information based off of extremely large quantities of data and gives the impression of thinking/understanding what it outputs, but it does not.
