technically, there is no search engine powered by AI

  Interesting. Care to elaborate?

    Well it's not really AI is it. There aren't any AIs available. It's all machine learning, large language model and different types of algorithms, all branded as Artificial Intelligens. All the "AIs" available falls into the computer science bucket called AI/ML, so it's not completely wrong, but none are truly intelligent. AI has been diluted to a point where we need to specify artificial general intelligence (AGI) when we want to refer to AI in the classical sense. To my knowledge, no search engine, or any other tech is powered by an AGI.

      Interesting. In another comment user shmageggy claims that decision trees have always been considered AI. I realise that my question should have had a more precise definition of AI.

All these things, even machine learning, is part of the broader umbrella of what computer science considers to be part of AI research field. There's just a rather large difference in "being part of AI research" and actually being an AI. I'd argue that when your phone says it's using AI to help take better photos, then it more branding that AI. Sure they took the technology from the AI research field, but it's not an AI.
