Sure, but a 10 year old has real intelligence... they have an idea of what is going on, no one is arguing they don't have the same kind of intelligence as adults, just that they have things they still need to learn.... so why couldn't you say the same of the AI that is learning how to give challenge recommendations? Just because it isn't perfect doesn't give evidence for or against artificial intelligence being a real thing.
