You are trying to get me to give you sources of the semantics of the term AI. That is literally what you are doing.

I think I realized your problem, what you need is the definition of the individual parts so you can grasp the concept "AI" semantically.

adjective: artificial

1. made or produced by human beings rather than occurring naturally, especially as a copy of something natural.  "her skin glowed in the artificial light"

noun: intelligence

1. the ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skills. "an eminent man of great intelligence"

AI by definition can be really mundane and limited it doesn't have to satisfy your idea of it you got in your head from movies and tv.

No, I’m asking you to give me the source on Your given definition of AI. Catch on.

Oh well in that case, me. ahahahhaha wtf dumbass want to word that better

Does it run on something that's modelled on a neural net? Then it's AI by definition.

I think you're confusing AI with "AGI".

Explain.
