But if those things are considered AI then why would it matters if you market them as AI?

  Why do you consider them to be AI? Random IF-THEN statements are not AI, or any program fragment would be AI. False advertisement is under the FTC's purvue. [1] When the Federal Trade Commission finds a case of fraud perpetrated on consumers, the agency files actions in federal district court for immediate and permanent orders to stop scams; prevent fraudsters from perpetrating scams in the future; freeze their assets; and get compensation for victims.When consumers see or hear an advertisement, whether it’s on the Internet, radio or television, or anywhere else, federal law says that ad must be truthful, not misleading, and, when appropriate, backed by scientific evidence.

    So what's the FTC's definition of AI then?
    • chris_wot 4y ago
      The same as the advertiser's definition.

    Not sure why you're quoting the false advertisement text; it doesn't pertain to the argument of what is considered to be AI. At least rules-based expert systems have always been a part of artificial intelligence. They shouldn't be called machine learning, though. if/then logic is really just an implementation detail of rules-based expert systems. I think these rules-based systems can be differentiated from normal code in that there is a lot of compact domain knowledge encoded for classifications or decisions.
