I believe the language revolving around AI has been construed by those who are not knowledgable technically but spout nonsense to appear knowledgable to attract clicks and sell books. It doesn't help when laypersons see anatomical terms like neural network and get the image of a computer replicating a human neuron. In fact its merely a fancy for loop. The same results can be achieved with a few nested for loops though not as efficient). AI at the moment is a term flung around too much. There are some faux AI tools out there to cash in on the trend. Others can be simple implementations of predictive analysis with AI label slapped on the side for grandeur. Like another poster said, its about managing expectations.
