Yeah, exactly. We call it AI because we need a name for this kind of adaptive algorithm, even if it isn't anything close to strong AI

- pron 10y agoThere are JIT compilers, and even sorting algorithms that are adaptive. Are they AI too? What's wrong with the name "statistical learning" (as that's the flavor du jour of so called AI anyway)?
- legolas2412 10y agoI think the word "adaptive" is meant to mean "general" learning that can be applied to more behavior. AlphaGo was trained for blackgammon, could it be given chess and learn it just as well? The answer is no. If I had to personally define AI, I would give a machine input to limbs of robot, and output of cameras and microphones (eyes and ears). And I would see if given sufficient years, can it learn language and conversation and ability to use robotic body for sports.
