I was expecting "master" and "slave" to show up since I've seen that argument being made (https://www.eetimes.com/its-time-for-ieee-to-retire-master-s...), but I have a hard time taking it seriously.

I agree about AI though. The rush to exploit the phrase as a marketing term has killed it's original meaning. Once we actually have AI we're going to need something else to call it. I've always kind of liked the distinction Mass Effect made between Virtual Intelligence and Artificial Intelligence/Synthetic Intelligence, but I guess it's too late to start calling what we have now VI. Synthetic/Inorganic Intelligence is still on the table for the real thing though and it'd be better than something like AI+ or AI 2.0
