"Qui" (pronounced ki) also means "who" in French. I wonder if they're related.
French and Farsi (Persian) are both IndoEuropean languages. So yes, they are related. If I'm reading it right, the Proto-IndoEuropean word for "who?" is /kwis/.
KI means AI in German, I was already searching for some fancy GPT implementations
Künstliche Intelligenz. Sounds super cool, not gonna lie.
