Well, that "minority" is essentially the same community that invented the term in the first place. It's not like what you're observing is some ghastly secret: the AI community hasn't been seriously trying to construct strong AI for 25+ years. "AI" is a bad term, and doesn't accurately describe much of the work that is done in the field -- fair enough. Considering that trying to build strong AI is a pipedream anyway (IMHO), I don't think that's such a disaster. The person asking the question was plainly talking about weak AI techniques anyway.
- downer 19y ago> the AI community hasn't been seriously trying to construct strong AI for 25+ years. Now that's an excuse if I ever heard one. "Uhh... we weren't seriously trying... uhh..." That's also why I'm not dating Natalie Portman! > Considering that trying to build strong AI is a pipedream anyway (IMHO) That's hilarious. Heavier-than-air flying machines, a man on the Moon, sending pictures through invisible AIRWAVES?!? Pipe dreams!
