For those not in the know:

Very first words:
The Chinese room argument holds that a computer executing a program cannot have a mind, understanding, or consciousness,[a] regardless of how intelligently or human-like the program may make the computer behave.

As far as I can tell, the term AI has been applied to a host of machine learning models. The more advanced the machines get, the more they’re marketed as even more artificially intelligent and thus the rest is no longer real artificial intelligence. I’ve heard the word used for decision tree learning, perceptrons, CNNs, facial recognition using linear algebra… even the fairly unintelligent “AI” of computer games has that title.
I think the difficulty is to pin down a specific definition of AI that doesn’t move its goalposts along with the state of technology.
