MIT Technology Review just dropped their "AI Wrapped 2025", a glossary of the 14 terms you couldn't escape this year.
What I like about it: they're not just cataloguing the hype. "Superintelligence" is there, sure. But so is "slop", the flood of AI-generated garbage polluting the internet. Including the critical vocabulary alongside the aspirational stuff gives a more honest picture.
If you spent 2025 nodding along to AI conversations without being 100% sure what people meant, this is your catch-up. 10 minutes well spent before 2026.
