Mass Effect used this to great effect. An AI is a fully actualized Intelligence. A sentient being. It can think and feel and it is genuine intelligence. What we would call AGI. A VI is a Virtual Intelligence. That’s a chatbot or LLM. A program made to mimic intelligence. In Mass Effect VI were used as tour guides and as the user facing interface to relay information. I think the whole space would greatly benefit from making that distinction clear.
