If you consider machine learning a type of AI.

Pretty much no one on the market are doing AI that couldn’t be called machine learning. It’s all about the buzzwords and remarketing...

IMO a calculator is AI; prove me wrong.

The "O" part can ("in my Opinion") cannot be proved or disproved.

If it's indeed so in your opinion, it is so (in your opinion).

Uh, opinions can still be proven wrong. Contrary to public postmodern belief, opinions are falsifiable.

Uh, missed the point.

An opinion can be proved wrong.

The statement "in my opinion, X is Y" cannot.

Wow, so your comment was even more useless. Or was it a joke that I didn't get? The challenge was "prove me wrong" (with the opinion that I just uttered), not "disprove that this is my opinion".

>Wow, so your comment was even more useless.

It was technically correct, which is the best kind of correct.

If a calculator is AI then a wrench may as well be AI. There is huge disagreement over what ~really~ is Artificial Intelligence so the argument is pointless without a chosen definition.

Artificial yes, intelligence I dont think so.

Is that really true? Long ago weak AI was distinguished from strong AI.
