- Thank you very much for the improvement, JPxG! I always thought the previous image was at least whimsical, but I couldn't think of anything better myself. Felix QW (talk) 05:43, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
- I think the brain-shape with electric circuits is misleading. Beyond that, the caption contained advertising (I've removed that).
- If we distinguish AI (telelogical, the idea of performing human-type tasks) from ML (methodological, like statistics), it should demonstrate [User talk:BlackholeWA|talk]]) 16:33, 27 September 2023 (UTC)
- Having just reread WP:Navigation templates, it seems that the image indeed goes against the guidance given there on avoiding decorative images in Infoboxes. On the other hand, I am not sure if that part of the essay still reflects editorial practice, and I have also asked as much at Wikipedia talk:Navigation templates.

Hello all. I have been WP:BOLD and reverted to the old image for the timebeing. Although I agree the old image is not ideal

it's alive! template taking a life of its own
This is a general comment on series' templates that I perhaps notice the most with this one (because I spend the most time on related articles). Such templates are added to (new) articles because (new) editors think it is expected. The template is quite large (in terms of pixels) and treats top-level topics (as it should).
The situation I'm thinking about is that small AI-topic articles (e.g. a specific AI model like AlphaDev). It does not seem to me that this large template of high-level topics is of particular added value here.
Of course, this decision was made by the editor that article and beyond the control of the editors of this template.
My question is more, can something be done, e.g.:
- clarify at the top of documenation that this should not be added to any AI-related article
- maybe make this template smaller

- The general guidance on navigation templates seems pretty clear to me in that it should only be used on those pages that are linked in the template. Felix QW (talk) 14:27, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
Image
Image generation has improved a lot since last year. I wondered if it would be possible to use a better image with a more recent image generator like Midjourney or DALL-E 3. Since it is used in a lot of articles, any aesthetic improvement has a lot of value. I uploaded an example of image here, in case you like it. It's fine if you don't like it and want to create one yourself, or if you want me to generate new ones with a different prompt. I'll be waiting for feedback.

- While I'm generally not convinced that a navbox about an abstract concept such as artificial intelligence should have an image, for my liking this one in particular veers too far on the side of illustrating an artistic rendering of an artificial neural network, rather than somehow representing the field of AI as a whole. The current one is odd enough to hide the workings of the "machine brain" completely rather than suggest interconnected "neurons". Felix QW (talk) 09:56, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
Technology section
I suggest to remove the "Technology" section, since it only contains one link, to the article List of programming languages for artificial intelligence. Alenoach (talk) 00:25, 21 January 2024 (UTC)
- I removed the section, that should simplify the template a bit. Alenoach (talk) 02:51, 23 January 2025(UTC)
