When I hear "Artificial Intelligence," I picture a computer with sentience, something that thinks and perceives like an animal or human. But instead, the term is being thrown around to describe basic models like linear regression, which clearly don't think for themselves. Even if it's meant as a shorthand for all algorithms, calling every math operation "AI" cheapens the meaning and blurs the line between true intelligence and simple computation.
Would you be annoyed if, when you asked someone "Where’s the nearest train station?" they answered "It’s on Earth!"?
