I think the opposite. Any field, from physics to biology tends to have overly opaque jargon. AI grew on its own and quickly shed the idea of being "based on biology" or the rest of science, so its basic jargon is pretty much understandable. Things like Dropout, Attention etc are intuitively named. I think people like me underestimated, however, how fast the field evolved and how big the corpus became, so specific architectures got specific names and more are being created every day. There is no shortcut around that though, because they are in the discovery phase. Once things settle down to a few architecutres they ll make some kind of IUPAC
