> Sci-fi is science fiction. Fiction.

Yes, that is what "fi" means. Fiction often introduces and explores ideas about the future. Ideas.

> LLMs are a useful technology. They have no relation to AI terminator bots

Technology that can communicate with human language. Also relevant, other SOTA models operating in other modalities.

The important thing if you reference SciFi, are the major ideas that stand on their own merits. Whereas, specific characters, such as terminators, are usually not predictive.

You are actually underlining my point. The disconnect a lot of people are struggling with is real.
