    I think it's a play on "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic".

  In my AI class in college, we learned about first order logic. To me it didn't seem like we were really learning AI but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. I guess it's because it made too much sense so in my mind it couldn't be AI.

      Ah yes, the AI version of the no true scotsman fallacy

  AI is what we call algorithms before we really understand them.
