Well, every dichotomy is false, probably even the dichotomy between dichotomies and non-dichotomies...
Dreyfus’s critique is about the first order (or whatever) logic programs, and I don’t think neural nets are cognitivistic in the same way, but there’s also the point that until they live in the human world as persons they will never have “human-like intelligence”.
I think it’s interesting to think of AI in a kind of post-Heideggerian way that includes the possibility that it can be desirable or necessary for us human beings to submit and “lower” ourselves to robotic or “artificial” systems, reducing the need for the AIs to actually attain humanistic ways of being. If the self-driving cars are confused by human behaviors, we can forbid humans on the roads, let’s say. Or humans might find it somehow nice to let themselves act within a robotic system, like maybe the authentic Heideggerian being in the world is also a source of anxiety (anxiety was a big theme for Heidegger after all).
