    But “AI” is the umbrella term for all of them. What you said is the equivalent of saying:

    we really need to stop calling things “vehicles”. There’s cars, trucks, airplanes, submarines, and space shuttles and they’ve all been called vehicles, but functionally they have almost nothing to do with each other

    All of the things you’ve mentioned are correctly referred to as AI, and since most people do not understand the nuances of neural networks vs hard coded algorithms (and anything in-between), AI is an acceptable term for something that demonstrates results that comes about from a computer “thinking” and making shaved intelligent decisions.

    Btw, just about every image recognition system out there is a neural network itself or has a neural network in the processing chain.

    Edit: fixed an autocorrect typo
