So it looks like a store inventory tracker from the 80s which alerts staff to restock a shelf is AI, and subject to this.

  If it says "with the past trends order 1000pices of product X" While reaaaaally simple it is still a form of IA, I don't see nothing wrong with that A advanced model would maybe see industry prices and consumer trends but it's the same in my eyea

    It doesn't even need to do that. It's not saying "predictions, recommendations, and decisions". It's or. So it just needs to recommend or decide based on any data (such as how many are left at this moment in a database) in a way that has real world outcomes (someone stocks a shelf). A thermostat that turns on an HVAC unit after temperature drops below a reference point technically qualifies as AI based on this definition. It's maybe a bit broad.

      > It's maybe a bit broad. I've always thought the difficulty in defining what AI is stems from a need to differentiate humans from the "artificial" part of it. The real issue with using AI (from a law enforcement perspective) is the inability to put somebody under oath and ask them why they made the decisions they did. All the FTC really needs to say is something like "If we suspect your product is discriminating against a protected class and you can't (as a company) explain what the decision making process was (that was non-discriminatory) we will assume the worst."

      It is not because now AI means that. If you want to say "true AI" you have to say "General AI"
